Though I would agree with you on Solti for the most part, I would disagree with the Bernstein recommendation - many of the tempi are just too slow, MUCH below what Mahler marks in the score, and they don't come off with the right feeling. For most musicians, the Mahler master is Claudio Abbado, hands down. It will be a very sad day when he retires. There isn't anyone else on his level right now or in the near future.
