In Reply to: I think I would have warmed up to Mahler's hubris when it came to scores. posted by Paul_A on September 16, 2011 at 21:17:56:
. . . I generally like a wide latitude of interpretive choice, and in fact I'm in the process of reading and relishing Earl Wild's memoir ("A Walk on the Wild Side") right now (over 800 pages and weighing in at three-and-a-half pounds!) . Wild has some great insights about the pious "respect for the score" attitude by musicians whom he considers second-rate. So, in general, I'm with you on this point. But I seem to have a blind spot as far as the Schumann Symphonies go - I just can't stand those re-orchestrations and re-touchings! ;-)
