Good call - I didn't know this and it's very fine. It's not heavy and ponderous like Bernstein, Haitink etc in the 4th mov. The music breathes and flows like Boulez and Gielen. Well, nobody is as good as Gielen to my ears. I'm just sampling it as a write, but I'm going to listen all through.......The more I listen the more I'm beginning to think this is one of the truly great versions of the 9th. I've heard multiple recommendations for Bernstein, Guilini, Haitink, Walter, Maazel, Barbarolli and more of the usual suspects. I just don't like any of them much.
I've also lost some of my enthusiasm for Karajan, but must give it another listen.
I'm definitely preferring Gielen, Boulez, Maderna, Inbal, and now Lopez-Cobos adds to that list. Maybe this is "cool" Mahler but to me it's the music without the histrionics and rhetoric, which is what I want.
Thank you so much for the recommendation - must see what else he's recorded.
