Description:

The masterpiece performance by Maazel & Yomiuri Symphony Orchestra! The long-awaited CD release of the legendary Mahler "Resurrection"! This is one of the most brilliant performances in the history of Mahler performance in Japan. 1987 was the year when Maazel was at the peak of his artistic powers. This is a record of his first appearance at the podium of the Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Orchestra under the most extreme conditions during a busy tour of Japan with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra. The haunting and free expression is astonishing even now. After the first movement, he sat on a chair next to the conductor's podium for a five-minute pause as Mahler had instructed. Respecting his intention, CD1 is only the first movement. This is as slow as a live performance of Klemperer's last years, and it hits you in the brain. This is a legendary performance, even among those who knew the music at the time. This concert has a special meaning as the eve of the Mahler boom in Japan in the 1990s. The highlight is the final movement, which sings, prays, and roars for over 35 minutes. I can assure you that listening to this concert will purify your heart and soul. The sound quality is also brilliant, capturing the acoustics of the Tokyo Bunka Kaikan as it is.Mr. Maazel passed away suddenly in 2014, but his widow, Mrs. Dietlinde Turban Maazel, gave her consent for the CD.
