Mahler: Das Lied von der Erde
RecommendedSarah Connolly (mezzo-soprano), Robert Dean Smith (tenor)
Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra, Vladimir Jurowski

Mahler: Symphony No. 10
Recommendedperforming version by Deryck Cooke
Minnesota Orchestra, Osmo Vänskä
Vänskä sees to it that his ever-waxing Minnesota Orchestra is ideally engaged with the various heights and depths...Limpid and lurid woodwind playing shines out, from the ghoulish clarinets in... — More…

RecommendedMahler: Blumine - Bruckner: Symphonisches Präludium
Bamberger Symphoniker, Jakub Hrůša
Since its disinterring in 1989, there have been some fine recordings, but surely none more persuasive than this. Jakub Hrůša plainly loves the score and strives to characterise its every detail,... — More…

what’s truly unique is the marriage of low-level dynamics which inform so much of the work with absolute focus… Every Mahler One should make one reflect on some aspect of the work ’s originality;... — More…

Mahler: Song Cycles
RecommendedAlice Coote (mezzo-soprano)
