 Carnegie Hall: Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s "Wagner and Modernism"
The Chicago Symphony Orchestra’s three-concert Wagner and Modernism triptych at Carnegie Hall (all conducted by Daniel Barenboim) ended on Oct. 20 with a galvanizing recital of Wagner’s opera Tristan und Isolde.

 'Live at Carnegie Hall' by Renaissance - A Review
The live version is rather good, perhaps due to increased energy from the live performance, and from the added dimension that an orchestra can lend.
I am not normally a fan of live albums- I prefer the controlled surroundings of the studio, where the artist can hopefully make music as close to the version in their head as is possible.
