Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Here is a delightful coupling: Mahler's First Symphony and the song cycle that donated many of its themes to the larger work. Best of all, both performances are superb. Rafael Kubelik is the dark horse among Mahler conductors. His interpretations are always fresh, unforced and seemingly without exaggeration. However, he knows how to build a climax, and his generally swift tempos never permit a minute's boredom. There are many moments to cherish in his performance of the symphony, not least the delicious woodwind playing and the tangy trumpets in the third movement's Fiddler on the Roof music. Reissued at mid-price in excellently remastered sound--better than most new digitals in many respects--this is a performance that remains one of the best, and as a coupling it is unbeatable. --David Hurwitz

4.0 out of 5 stars Very fine recording, but it could be cheaper..., 16 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This is an excellent recording of the first, and I like it immensely. Kubelik elicits some wonderfully open sounds from the BRSO, and the joyful moments in the symphony shine out.

HOWEVER, if you overlook the nice "DG Originals" packaging, you can get the exact same recording on "DG Classikon" for £2 cheaper. Its just above this entry...

5.0 out of 5 stars A perfect 1!, 5 April 2001
By A Customer
This successful coupling fits not only the 1:st symphony but also the song cycle that Mahler later used countless themes from for his first three symphonies; "Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen". Kubelik chooses relatively swift tempos - ensuring excitement and cunningly avoiding any negative side of swiftness: the dreaded "rushing". In some aspects, Kubelik could be considered an outsider among Mahler conductors with a conducting style that sometimes are the exact opposite of many contemporary conductors. His fresh and uncomplicated interpretation is often very obvious but nevertheless brilliantly powerful. This midprice CD is remastered and very well remastered indeed with all analogue pros in a digital setting. In short, a very nice coupling!

5.0 out of 5 stars The number one First Symphony of Gustav Mahler, 18 Jan 2006
By A Customer
Vernal, poetic and idiomatic: all words suiting Kubelik's Mahler. There's no better place to sample his particular brand of interpretation than with this, the First Symphony, one of nine completed symphonies he recorded in Munich during the sixties and seventies. The additional songs on the disc are very apt because their melodies are the foundation of the symphony as well. A CD entirely worthy of being placed amongst DG's Originals. Recommended.
