Negative Positive
Title: NO, sorry, just no
Review: And I write this as someone who owns Boulez's Mahler 6, 7 and 9, and like each of them a lot.But, he just doesn't get the Mahler 2 right. Tempo nuances, phrasing, volume, etc., just aren't there.Part of this, I believe is due to this being near the beginning of Boulez's effort to tackle Mahler. No matter.Gilbert Kaplan and others are definitely better among modern interpreters, and Klemperer has a great older recording on EMI.
Is the review positive or negative?
