One of Abravanel's best
L. Johan Modée | Earth | 08/06/2004
(4 out of 5 stars)

"This set is an incredible bargain. You get a very fine interpretation of Mahler's third symphony for a very low price. Maurice Abravanel and Utah SO are perhaps not the most famous Mahler-music makers today, but in the Mahler record history they have a solid reputation.



Abravanel's take of Mahler 3 is one of his best achievements. This is at least my impression, when I compare it with the other recordings of his that I have in my collection. It has the quality of a live performance, with a spacious and and a somewhat reverberate sound from the Tabernacle acoustics. And the Utah SO playing is a bit raw at times, especially the brass. But this is as it should be, with this symphony-it should be as a part of nature itself: compare with Barbirolli's Hallé recording (BBC legends)!



Abravanel's interpretation is also quite faithful to the score, as far as I can see. Warmly recommended.
