Tracklist
01. Symphony No. 2 In C Minor "Resurrection": I. Allegro Maestoso - Mit Durchaus Ernstem Und Feierlichem Ausdruck
02. Symphony No. 2 In C Minor "Resurrection": II. Andante Moderato - Sehr Gemächlich - Nie Eilen
03. Symphony No. 2 In C Minor "Resurrection": III. In Ruhig Fliessender Bewegung - Sehr Gemächlich, Nicht Eilen
04. Symphony No. 2 In C Minor "Resurrection": IV. Urlicht: "O, Röschen Rot! Der Mensch Liegt In Grösster Not!" Sehr Feierlich, Aber Schlicht, Nicht Schleppen
05. Symphony No. 2 In C Minor "Resurrection": V. Im Tempo Des Scherzo, Wild Herausfahrend - "Auferstehn, Ja Auferstehn" Langsam, Misterioso - Etwas Bewegter - Mit Aufschwung Aber Nicht Eilen
This recording presents the massive work on a double album - one devoted to the first movement and the other containing the remainder of the symphony - seemingly directing the listener to observe the intermission Mahler wanted between these parts. Not that Zinman's driven interpretation of the first movement really requires a rest break, nor is the orchestra's playing all that draining, but it's nice to follow the composer's wishes and it helps clear the air for the delicate and quiet Andante, which is rendered here with a gentle Ländler feeling. The scherzo 'In ruhig fließender Bewegung,' which provides the symphony's dramatic turning point, is particularly sharp and disturbing in this fast performance, and the tempo is unrelenting in its forward motion, not pausing for even a moment of sentiment. The fourth movement, 'Urlicht,' features contralto Anna Larsson as soloist, and her tone and expression are quite warm, though her voice comes in and out of focus as she moves. Similar spatial problems are evident in the Finale, where the offstage band and the trumpet calls are a little vague. The final ecstatic section with soprano Juliane Banse, the Schweizer Chamber Choir, the extra brass, and the full orchestra is magnificent, and the conclusion of this ode is the most compelling part of this 2006 performance. This is definitely not the last word on this grandiose symphony, since its popularity only increases as time passes, but Zinman and his musicians can hold their heads high for a job well done, and RCA's engineers can be proud of the deep spaciousness and rich colors of the reproduction.“ (All Music Guide, Blair Sanderson)
