In Reply to: Mahler Symphony 9 - recommendations? posted by andy evans on August 29, 2016 at 02:45:19:
One that's overlooked a lot is the first stereo recording of the 9th, on Everest SDBR 3050, with Leopold Ludwig and the London Symphony. Recorded on 35mm film by Bert Whyte, at Walthamstow Town Hall in 1959. I wouldn't necessarily want it to be my only one, but it is very well played, and Ludwig's interpretation is refreshing in its clarity. A nice antidote to some of the more overwrought performances out there. The usual terrific Everest sound is a bonus. There are a couple of CD issues, however, the one that would interest me is the hi rez issue from High Definition Tape Transfers, link below. Available in all manner of download formats, and there is a 24/96 sample that can be downloaded for free. It says that it was done from a 15 ips 2 track tape, but no indication of exactly where that came from (there was no commercial 2 track issue of this). I have not heard this one, but as a rule, their work is extremely good. And it's even on sale!
