A sensational performance
I was astonished by the performance of this work by the BPO/Rattle when I listened to it via ABC fm radio direct from the Sydney Opera House around the same time as this Singapore recording. At that time I realised that I just had to have it even though I have a few recordings already of Mahler 1. This dvd re-created for me that evening in 2010, where I remember an amazing feeling of being able to "see" into the orchestra to hear details I never knew existed. This is, for me, the greatest performance of a symphonic work that I have heard, live or recorded.
Muscians and Show people
the Berlin Phil is so familar to me. I know the first names of many of the muscieans. It is one of the few symphony orchestras that records for DVD. they are tops.
