5 out of 5 stars Essential collection.......2004-09-17

Bruno Walter. Mahler's disciple and protégé. His reputation as a Mahler conductor is unmatched (though Klemperer and Mengelberg come close). This set contains nothing but essential Walter CBS recordings, even if it is a pity that the set, as such, is incomplete. First, Walter's very fine CBS account of Das Lied von der Erde is excluded. Second, his outstanding mono take of the first symphony with NYPO, for CBS, is missing.

What we have here are nonetheless recordings that belong in every Mahlerite collection. It is good to have them all in a set - for saving money, for example. And it is nowadays almost impossible to find the present performance of ninth symphony as a single set (blame SONY for their policy).

Some comments:
Symphony 1 & 2: outstanding early stereo takes (no. 1, rec. 1961, no. 2, rec. 1958) with classic, warm interpretations that leave very little to wish.
Symphony 4 & 5: two mono takes (rec. 1946), but indeed essential even for hifi enthusiasts. Clearly among the very best and classic performances of these works.
Symphony 9: Walter made the first live recording of this symphony in 1938 (available on EMI or Naxos). But this is the first stereo recording of the ninth (rec. 1961). The interpretation is second to none.

Grab this set while it's available!

    Leif Segerstam's unsung Mahler cycle offers outstanding performances of Symphonies No. 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9, and very good versions of Symphonies No. 4 and 5. Elsewhere, Segerstam can be a bit perverse--particularly in the dementedly slow first movement of Symphony No.2--but he's a first-class musician, and he brings great conviction to everything that he does. Not a first recommendation, perhaps, but Mahler fans will still have a good time. --David Hurwitz
