Klaus Tennstedt: Complete Mahler Symphonies (16 CD Box Set) (CD)

Customer Review

who loves well punishes us say ....... I 'm not dwell too much before such a fiasco ...... discography is full and unabridged versions of high level: Haitink, kubelik, walter, bernstein here .... chief overrated at best just okay in 8, 7, catastrophic in the 3 and 6 ....... to flee! ! ! ! !
set apart people who discovered the work by record what counts and thus have forged strong emotional ties which far exceed the quality of the recordings, I really do not understand that one can find in this integral.
objectivity? but it goes in all directions! if you search the strength analysis of the score, we turn to boulez, a real laser, or to inbal that was acclaimed in his time for his repect the score eventually rejected for lack of emotion .. ..
Mahler himself said that music was the preferred vehicle to evoke that a human being can feel, which explains the strong autobiographical overtones of his work, expressing his states of mind, and we would not hear, but we feel ? it's this respect for Mahler? remain serious! ! ! it's just outright deny what makes the essence of the work! once emptied his emotions, he remains what? effects for effects, the void! ! more heart, more humanity, more love, more suffering, more than likely, nothing ...... or crimped against the general sense is the caricature from one end to the other. this integral should s 'call' that it is important not to do! "
Here music does not speak, does not go, there 's no natural, it is far from a walter, a student and friend of Mahler, who helped al organization of the first in the 8th in Munich, who has worked and s' after war fought for the recognition of Mahler's music, which created the 9 th, after the composer's death, and the song of the earth. I can only advise you listening to his recordings, and those of klemperer who also knew Mahler. two other leaders saw the lead, mengelber and fried. their testimonies to the disc can not be overlooked. and then of course that there was romance in Mahler, who annotated his score to guide the feeling and thrill the listener without the lock in a purely musical program. Here, the chef fart as they say, it is always the limits of caricature when it s' not sinking outright in. We are far from the work of a bernstein, rigor of a Haitink, the sensitivity of a walter, of incandescence of a Ancerl, beauty of a karajan, the size of a klemperer of the quality of an alder, the honesty of a kubelik ..... it's great Guignol and tiresome. this success is not deserved.
speak of inevitable interpretation, it's simply a scandal.
a good marketing operation to flog us has decried their unsold output, and proof that we can all make us swallow from the moment it's awesome marked on the box.
my purpose is not to offend people who obviously enjoy. I just give my opinion is negative.
