This is an incredible recording of the Adagio. Never been a huge Slatkin fan but this is something! I highly recommend listening!
Enjoy!

Re: Adagio For Strings Recording
Here is another version of Barber's Adagio , this time it is an English brass band - very well done.

Re: Adagio For Strings Recording
If you really like the Adagio, then I'd highly recommend listening to Agnus Dei if you have not already. It's Adagio set (by Barber) for an eight-part choir. It's really amazing. You can find it on YouTube.
