It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Blah. FWIW, I'm unimpressed overall; I likely wont listen to it again.

The 3rd movt's climax isn't terrifying, awesome or raucous enough for my tastes, and the posthorn bit is too soft.

The finale didn't move me at all. IMHO it's too fast for all Mahler's Parsifalian string polyphony to register. Before climaxes, Fischer doesn't linger over the Dominant to savor the moment and tease before release. It's a personal taste thing, but for me, home runs are far more exciting and satisfying when played back in slow motion.

Sound and warts aside, Adler still reigns supreme, in my book.
