| Summary |
"Beginning with the First Symphony, Bernstein reveals Mahler's position at the hinge of modernism, while emphasizing his emotional extremism. The uplifting Second "Resurrection" Symphony, with which Bernstein had an especially long and close association, is recorded here in a historic performance from 1973 ... In the Third, Bernstein encompasses the symphony's spiritual panorama like no other conductor."--Container. |
