One of the milestones in the history of Mahler performance in the second half of the 20th century.
Mahler's religious vision and human suffering blend effortlessly.
The orchestra is filled with Kubelik's characteristic natural drive and clear sound, and his honest, unpretentious music further highlights Mahler's universal message of "rebirth beyond death."
