I agree. Klemperer record remains to me the most defining and moving. Tight and the fugal section is devastating like the late quartets. I have not heard it live in two decades in NYC. I believe there was peformance about 5 years ago... It is seldom played Europe also...Although there was a performance Vienna a few years ago...It is played even less the Mahler's 8th. Yes it is expensive to perform....I love it.
