Mahler, recorded in 1962, was performed by a young Suitner. A masterpiece recording that fully utilizes the SKD's smooth tone at that time, it is still a gem of a wonderful sound. Excellent recording board.

Although Mahler recorded in 1962, when there were not many recordings, it is a masterpiece that can be used even today as an exemplary performance that purely captures the musicality of the song. Rather, it is an exhilarating performance that directly conveys the essence of the song rather than a later performance that emphasizes dynamics and dramatic dynamism. It may have been a satisfying recording with a high degree of perfection. After this, there is a live performance with the NHK Symphony Orchestra in 1973, but perhaps because the texture of the orchestra is different, this 1962 edition sounds clearer. However, it is interesting that the performance is not treated as a work of young writing, but rather the sound is unified with a calm and dark tone. Although the timbre of the orchestra at the time, the recording conditions, and the interpretation of Swittner had a lot to do with it, it can be said that it is a performance that should be particularly appreciated in terms of the straight performance that brings out the true value of the song, which eliminates the brilliant sound as much as possible. increase. In addition, there are few Mahler recordings of Suitner, and there are only Nos. This coupling includes R. Strauss's "Metamorphosen". The performance here is extremely detailed, and it is exceptional because it captures the transparency of the orchestra's stringed instruments well at that time. Swittner had a reputation for playing R. Strauss as a repertoire of solo music, but there are not many recordings. In 1964, when this "Metamorphosen" was recorded, it also recorded the Staatskapelle Dresden and the "Machijin Kizoku" suite in September and November, as well as short pieces from the opera. It is a precious sound source because it is very small.
