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

*Laid back* Mahler 5th? That's wrong...

Another long Adagietto is by Frank Shipway/Royal Philharmoic which also goes over 12 min. (12:27)
Whisper quiet and pretty, it has no tension or sense of anticipation. Underlying burning desire and yearning are completely missing.

I don't have many Vanska recording, but I noticed, perhaps he has a slight tendency to pretty thing up. It was ok some Beethoven programs but not for Mahler.

Abaddo/CSO Mahler 5 was also *everythig-is-same-same* camp. It wasn't not the longest Adagietto but sure felt like one~

*I have (or have had) over 80 recordings of this work.*
Wow. A hard core. :0 I only have about a dozen so far.
