Mahler

[George K]

So, Mrs. George is out of the house, so it's just me, the three cats and Sidney.

I always take these opportunities to crank up the stereo.

I'm listening to Gary Bertini's recording of the Mahler #1.

Somehow, it doesn't move me. Tempos seem uneven, and some of the orchestral parts, esp in the 1st movement sound a bit sloppy.

@george-k Klaus Tennstedt recorded a really good Mahler 1

Kluurs to compare the Tennstedt recording to a dozen others in ten….nine….eight….

Thanks, I found it on Apple Music. Listening now!

I for one can't wait until the Kazoo version of Mahler #1 is released. Yes, this is a thing.

Kubilek, Fischer and Bernstein would be three I'd try out for Mahler 1 - though I've not done a playoff - sorry!

This clip made my day.
