Three precious Mahler symphonies released by conductor Gielen and Altus who passed away in 2019 will be made into SACD for the first time only at Tower Records. All 239 minutes are recorded on one single layer. These are famous projects that made the recordings proposed by the conductor himself into a vinyl record and especially No. 5 is a strange performance that looks like a young Giren. The latest remastering renews the sound quality!

This year (2021) Michael Gielen (1927.7.20-2019.3.8) who celebrated his two years after his death is highly regarded as one of the best performers in modern times including the complete symphonies left on the Hensler label. Gillen's cold-hearted style which set him apart from his passionate Marler performances was initially greeted by the audience with some confusion but the style of the song was not lost. The approach which brought the form of a solid framework to the fore had a great impact on the audience. It is remarkable even in live performances and has left many famous performances. Among them No. 7 in 1994 which stood on the podium of the Berlin Philharmoniker as a substitute for Tennstedt was exceptional and the performance with all the main members caused controversy at that time (when it first appeared it was released as a tower planning board. SBT1480 ). Gielen's '70s Mahler was just as intense and the 1971 No. 5 contained here was comparable to Scherchen's 1965 live (ALT339) with the Orchester National de France in terms of impact. It is a performance in the far north that can be said to be. There is a very thorough and unforgiving performance by Gielen and there are few performances that approach the listener so strongly. His interpretation at that time as if Rosbaud had evolved further was novel and conversely it was surprising that such a thorough performance was possible. This time in addition to this No. 5 released on CD on the market the No. 3 and No. 6 of the live in Berlin in 1984 which was also released on CD are added and the total of 239 minutes as a SACD single layer. The performance was recorded on one piece for a long time. Nos. 3 and 6 are performances prior to the complete recordings that were subsequently recorded on the Hensler label with the Southwest German Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra and are just halfway between the thorough and hard performances of the 1970s. The live performance also leads to a feeling of tension and enthusiasm and there are many interesting points compared to the later performances.
