They do.  A few years ago, I saw the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra perform Mahler's First Symphony.  

You're right.  Recordings are great, but there's nothing like the live experience 

 

When Jaap Van Zweden was here, the DSO programmed a LOT of Mahler (and Bruckner too). We had season tickets then,so it was truly a feast!

I just checked the ASO's schedule:

Another Mahler orchestral song cycle:

Hey Mahlerbro Man 😊 

Do you know this record?

I love it. It's got that real-time thing going on in a big way, both in performance and recording quality. Plus, it contains what I think is Jascha Horenstein's first recording.

A lot of historical significance, but more than just that.

I'm not familiar with that one.  Looks fascinating. I'll check it out! 👍
