JSngry Posted January 14 Report Posted January 14 1 hour ago, HutchFan said: 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! Quote
HutchFan Posted January 14 Report Posted January 14 I just checked the ASO's schedule: https://www.aso.org/events/detail/oundjian-conducts-mahler-symphony-no-7 Hmmmm. Quote
HutchFan Posted January 14 Report Posted January 14 (edited) Now listening to Mahler's Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen performed by Mildred Miller & Bruno Walter, as heard on this set: Edited January 14 by HutchFan Quote
JSngry Posted January 14 Report Posted January 14 Hey Mahlerbro Man 😊 Do you know this record? https://www.allmusic.com/album/mahler-lieder-early-recordings-1915-1949-mw0001855892 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. Quote

HutchFan Posted January 15 Report Posted January 15 Horenstein's recording of Mahler's Third is justly famous -- but I think his recording of Mahler's First is even better. Quote
Ron S Posted January 15 Report Posted January 15 OK, I'm in for the Mahler Fest--now listening to: Mahler, Symphony No. 6 / Kindertotenlieder Leonard Bernstein, Vienna Philharmonic, Thomas Hampson (baritone) (Deutsche Grammophon) Quote
Peter Friedman Posted January 16 Report Posted January 16 String Quartet Op.18/5 and String Quintet Op.29 Quote

Referentzhunter Posted January 17 Report Posted January 17 Found this yesterday, ... will keep it to investigate more in near future despite not being the biggest Bernstein/Mahler enthousiast. Hearth only few symphonies from the cycle. Have to say that i did like the thirth here. I simply don't like the way he exaggerates Mahler's delicate music in some symphonies. But maybe there are more modest moments here ! Quote
