That shouldn't take long.Anyway, I agree with your comments on the Jarvi. While the recording is top-notch, I found the tempi in the first two movements much to tedious. Alternatively, the Szell is borderline unlistenable to me despite the performance.
The charms of the Fisher recording are much more apparent in multichannel, and I felt the playing was excellent and the interpretation appropriately idiomatic. That one is still my favorite Dvorak 9th on SACD, a nice balance between best performance and best sonics.
