Continued listening to yesterday. I also listened to,

Bayerisches Staatsorchester, Kirill Petrenko, Symphony No. 7

as well as

Budapest Festival Orchestra, Iván Fischer, Symphony No. 9

I still have a lot more to get through and hope to do so today. There are only a few more albums I would like to get, but that will have to wait until I have the funds. Actually, specifically, I am interested in getting more Mahler conducted by .

Most recordings of the 5th that I've heard drag the Adagietto out painfully. Rudolf Schwarz's with the London Symphony gets it right.

Managed to sleep a little while listening to . When I woke up Mahler was still playing. 🎵 Last time that happened I had rather severe nightmares. No dreams that I can remember this time. I bet Mahler gets blamed for lots of things in general. 🤔 Just grateful that I was able to get any sleep at all. One would think with sleeping pills I would be able to sleep through the full night. I really miss a full night's sleep. I can hardly remember what that is like. 😞

I took a very long time to *accept . Now his symphonies are one of my go-to calming, but still introspective, listening modes.

I just re-discovered a , Symphony No. 1, album in my music database that I had completely forgotten about. As such, I updated: Minor Key . Net Gustav (Symphony) minorkey.net/minor-key-playlis

Which, of course, led to me listening to the whole Mahler playlist again.

ICYMI: Minor Key . Net Roundup: Specific Artists minorkey.net/minor-key-playlis

finished classic mahler, a quiet peaceful ending to all that excitement, though i was surprised by how little action there was in the 4th movement.

Abbado, as always, nailed it. Pitch perfect, still my favorite mahler interpreter.

I wonder who are the top currently operating Mahler conductors? MTT just retired, so who's next, who's coming up?

Listening to this new release of Symphony No. 3 by the open.spotify.com/album/2ko8SaC

Several of Mahler's symphonies require 6-8 timpani (on top of generally demanding instrumentation) which makes it difficult for an amateur orchestra to perform them.

Just an recommendation. Do NOT listen to while you sleep. The dreams are unbearable. I didn't learn my lesson the first time I woke with nightmares and put on a different Mahler album, went back to sleep, and the cycle repeated itself. Now I am going to have spend my day flossing my brain with . I know what you are thinking, but yes, it was that bad.

Guess I'll listen to the 2nd again tonight, since the library has so helpfully furnished me with a copy of the score. It's immense: quadrupled woodwinds, 6 trumpets, 10 horns, 2 harps, 2 timpani, soprano and mezzo soloists, full chorus, off-stage brass choir... I know from experience that I can count on superb playing by the Symphony and an inspiring interpretation from music director Ken-David Masur this Saturday!

Rückblick zum Mahler-Festival in Leipzig: Die 2. und die 8. Sinfonie

Das Gewandhausorchester umrahmte während des diesjährigen „Mahler-Festivals“ den Reigen aller Sinfonien von Gustav Mahler. Unter der Leitung seines Chefdirigenten Andris Nelsons spielte es zu Beginn die 2. Sinfonie (die sogenannte „Auferstehungs-Sinfonie“) und zum Abschluß die 8. Sinfonie (die sogenannte „Sinfonie der Tausend“).
