Barbirolli has made one of the greatest recordings ever made of the Fifth, and he alone has undoubtedly pierced "all the contradictions" in an interpretation that combines intelligence with lyricism and warmth. The first movement opens with an impressive trumpet blast. It is a curtain raiser to a funeral march of terrifying power. The second movement opens with a veritable storm of sound. From this maelstrom emerges a theme that is constantly interrupted, mishandled, and broken by the intrusions of the march, as if several orchestras were vying with each other in warlike power. The Scherzo, the largest movement of the symphony, takes on the appearance of a kermesse and a general dance. The Adagietto was written for strings alone and harp: a "song without words". The beauty of the slow movement lies in the fact that the theme is never repeated in full. The harmonic friction born of distant tonalities provokes an impression of elongation of time. What could be more innocuous than the few notes in the opening bars of the Rondofinale? This allegro (followed by an allegro giocoso) conceals its true power.
