Title: Disgusting and narcissistic
Review: Geez! I thought Christian Thielemann was the most obnoxious "podium legend" before the public these days, but Rattle has him beat. Nonsenical tempo changes, arbitrary and ineffective agogic accents, poor orchestra playing, engineering that filters out every high frequency over 10000 hz. - - this one has it all. A great party record for those of us steeped in the orthodox Mahler tradition.The only operative concept here is "I am Sir Simon, and this is _my_ Resurrection Symphony.Find another line of work, you arrogant dork!
