Otto Klemperer / New Philharmonia Orchestra - Mahler: Symphony No.9 - Japan 2 CD

Description:

[Classical Masters No. 8] A collection of definitive and long-selling recordings from Warner Classics (formerly EMI Classics). The analog recordings are the latest remastered recordings from analog masters made by Abbey Road Studios and other overseas studios. The front cover uses the original overseas cover design. Commentary included. If the essence of this symphony is the "aesthetics of passing away," Klemperer has expressed that fact in every detail in his performance here. The grace with which he accepts the fact that there is no way to escape it as it is. This is a masterful performance that makes a clear and logical sense.
