Title: Autumnal style Mahler beautifully played, superb recording
Review: Most Mahler collectors and enthusiasts have at least a few recordings of each symphony and most likely several of their very favorite Mahler symphony. This recording, so beautiful, clear, so lacking in digital harshness, such detail and dynamic range emerge - that it can fit into any Mahler collection. The ASO give suave, well defined tone, that allows us to hear the full score. While Levi conducts without a neurotic Bernstein character, nor the frenetic "greased pig" style of Karajan, this is world class playing beautifully captured. Tempi are just right. Comparatively, I would opine that this is Levis' best Mahler effort. Von Stade sings beautifully and the Wayfarer songs are most welcome.
