Glad you agree, Doc. I'm supposing you have a large music collection like me. The Horenstein dates from 1969. Bob Auger was the recording engineer.

Yup, that's the real reason for our hobby not all the electronic gizmos. But anything that gets me closer to the music I am all for!

Hey talking about Mahler, there is a virtually unknown composer, Hans Rott, a student of Bruckner and a classmate of Mahler. I just read about him in Listen Magazine. I heard samples of his 1st symphony on Amazon and it sounded pretty good so I ordered it. Seems old Gustav may have borrowed some ideas for his First. Tragic ending to Rott he wound up in asylum and died very young.

Horenstein's Mahler 3 is also a great, great performance. Sonics are a little muted unfortunately. Also a Unicorn offering.

Karel Husa - Music for Prague

This stuff is incredible. Dissonant, modern, but still musical and very listenable. Love it.
