The popularity of Mahler's symphonic works is unremitting. More
recordings have been made during the past ten years than in the
previous six decades. This work is a companion to the first volume,
published in 1986; together, the two review virtually every
recording commercially released (as well as some private issues).
The intention of both works is to provide a comprehensive analysis
of all recordings. A general overview is combined with details of
particular importance. Recordings of special merit are noted. The
objective critical discussions will appeal to the newcomer as well
as the knowledgeable devotee and the work will serve as a valuable
addition to university, music school, and public libraries, as well
as any music lover's library. This guide provides a
symphony-by-symphony commentary, including the unfinished Tenth
Symphony, Das Lied von der Erde, and piano and chamber music
reductions of the works. It includes all new recordings issued
worldwide as well as compact disc reissues of previously released
recordings and all performances on videocassette. Listings are
arranged alphabetically by conductor, and headings for each
recording contain specific information about the performers, record
label, catalog number, and timing. Helpful indexes by conductor,
orchestra, vocal and instrumental soloists, chorus, and record
label are included.
