Free Music Review: WoW!
Hit: 5 Stars
I am one to avoid expressions like superlative, quintessential, the best, ultimate and the like...but this reading of Mahler's 4th has astonished me. The texture and detail that Reiner with the CSO at his command is able to pull out of the score is unlike any other reading I have ever heard of this piece. Every instrumental component of the orchestra rings clear and the sound quality is stunning. It is hands above most modern readings in terms of audio quality alone and these guys were dealing with three strategically placed microphones. Not so bad if you ask me. Even if you have others in your collection, such as I, like Bernstein I / II, Gielen, Bertini, Tilson Thomas and on, you should add this to your collection without delay. It has revealed to me elements of the score and as such Mahler's compositional grammar that I was not aware of before. An absolute must for any self respecting Mahlerite.
