Leif Segerstam, Turku Philharmonic Orchestra - Mahler: Symphony No. 4 in G Major (2020) [Hi-Res]


The ten symphonies of Gustav Mahler have sometimes been likened to a great autobiographical novel, each symphony constituting a chapter in itself while at the same time being an integral part of an unfolding narrative. Within this narrative flow, the fourth symphony represents a magical pool of tranquility. Mahler drew on various sources in his symphony, one of them being Das himmlische Leben (1892). He originally intended this to be an independent song, but then had ideas of making it the finale of his giant third symphony before ultimately transferring it to his fourth. The song is a naïve vision of the joys of heaven seen through the eyes of a child; the symphony is, as a result, Mahlers most optimistic and relaxed. True, it does have some more shadowy moments, but they do not make the heart bleed or seriously disturb the overall mood.

He's an old hand at this kind of music, better than recent Beethoven :)
But mezzo soprano ...
I think old conductor needs not his orchestra but traditional one that helps him spontaneously.
Thanks

Yeh! Agree mezzo-soprano - not quite the idea of a boy soprano.

What was Leif thinking?

Worth one listen.

Thanks for sharing FLAC.

Cheers.

Thanks you very much!
this recording is very worthwhile listening to. The recording quality is great and also the orchestra is very, very nice.
However, the mezzo-soprano is horrible: much too much vibrato!
But any Mahler adept should hear this recording, in my opinion.
