I wonder if the conductor was in on engineering the recording. Almost certainly, what was heard from the podium was not what was "heard" by the microphones. Many really fine performances can be ruined by the recording engineers. This is my personal pet peeve with quite a few recordings these days. Great performance, lousy recording. You wonder what goes through the minds of the producers.
