In Reply to: That's a big find! I wonder if there are any bootleg lp's of this! nt posted by jdaniel@jps.net on January 18, 2015 at 19:58:28:
I assume that when you say bootleg you mean an unauthorized and surreptitious recording made in the hall on portable amateur or home recording equipment. In 1964 that would mean a small Japanese reel to reel recorder, or, perhaps with very lax security or a blind eye on the part of some hall employee, a NAGRA portable broadcast recorder.
I think that if there was a tape and if someone had gone to the trouble of pressing LPs (rather than just cutting a few acetates for friends) then that performance would have been known to the worldwide Mahler community as a very rare but existing document.
The perhaps more-likely scenario that did not come to pass, in view of the disappearance of the first-generation Austrian radio broadcast tape, is that an employee or someone with access to the vaults "borrowed" the first-generation tape, used it to cut acetates to make LP stampers, and then forgot to return the tape. But that obviously never happened.
I take DG at their word that this is in effect a totally new discovery, that, but for the Krips family's holding on to everything from Maestro Krips' career, would have been lost forever.
Of course, I would have wanted the tapes processed with Plangent Processing, but, you can't have everything.
