https://youtu.be/6xPfC-tSxXk Verdi was an incredibly versatile composer. Not only was he a great opera composer, but has written an amazing requiem and a very good string quartet. Shame he never wrote more "smaller" works like these. We did get the Shakespeare operas out of it though.
That is some BLARING LOUD music, is he trying to deafen someone? yeah we get it BIG CHORDS, and BIG HORNS, BIG TRUMPETS, BIG BIG BIG HUGE LOUD POWER BIG LOUD POW POW POW WOW WOW

iirc Fricsay had his hearing damaged just because of how extreme his dynamics were. The Cantelli performance isn't nearly as loud or fast as this. I like Verdi but he ain't the subtlest composer on the planet.

FACT CHECK that was actually Igor Markevitch I was thinking about. His is pretty good too.https://youtu.be/zw5T5-qdmhE
