About

This is LSO Live's first recording with the orchestra's Principal Conductor, Valery Gergiev. It is also Gergiev's first commercial recording of a Mahler symphony and marks the start of a complete cycle of the composer's symphonies.

The LSO has a formidable reputation in Mahler's music, having worked in concert and the studio with many of the greatest Mahler exponents. The intensity and drama that Gergiev brings to Mahler's music promises to produce the most astounding of cycles.

Recorded live at the Barbican in November 2007.

"If this is an indication of how the cycle will unfold, we're in for something wonderful." Daily Telegraph
Gramophone Editor's Choice
