The ultimate Mahler 4th
Linda McDougall | Guanajuato, Mexico | 01/28/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"For all you Mahler addicts out there, I'm not going to compare this Fourth Symphony with all the wonderful others available...I simply want to say BUY IT NOW, quickly, before it disappears. The almost surreal combination of Mahler, Schoenberg and Mengelberg is a tour de force, and if you can get yourself off the floor after the slow movement - the gut-strung, 17th century Amati violins, viola and cello create an unearthly, soulful richness - you can further delight yourself with the gorgeous voices of Christine Brandes and Susan Platts. Mahler believed that Lieder was the spring or fountain that fed the river of the symphony, and here, it's apparent.

Because I had to own every Mahler recording ever made, I came across this by accident - and now hardly listen to any other Fourth. This CD is just too good to last on the market - which is probably why I'm the FIRST reviewer!"
