Gustav Mahler's works are full of abrupt changes of mood. His influence on his successors was enormous and numerous composers Zemlinsky, Schönberg, Berg, Webern, Shostakovitch, Britten and Copland are just a few to acknowledge their debt. His influence also spread to the world of popular music. Paul McCartney wrote "I have always adored Mahler, and Mahler was a major influence on the music of The Beatles. John and me used to sit and do the Kindertotenlieder and Wunderhorn for hours, we'd take turns singing and playing the piano. We thought Mahler was great."
This 6-CD collection records Mahler's most remarkable works. Otto Klemperer was Mahler's protege and although we should be grateful that he recorded the works contained in this collection it is unfortunate that he never committed more to disc. In their latest remasterings these recordings literally defy their age.
