Mahler: Symphony no.1 - REVIEW

Mahler: Symphony no.1

Royal Flemish Philharmonic, Edo de Waart

RFP A-List 004

Another day, another orchestra own-label.  And very welcome this is too, on the strength of a superbly paced, artfully controlled Mahler performance from chief conductor de Waart.  His experience shows throughout: tempi are well judged, corners turned with care, making this warmly recorded version a cogent alternative to the flashier Concertgebouw Bernstein (DG and RCO Live)
