About

Following explosive accounts of the First and Sixth symphonies, the third release in Valery Gergiev's astonishing Mahler cycle features Symphony No.7. The revelatory performances of the Seventh have been one of the highlights of the cycle in concert to date.

DSD recording, live at the Barbican March 2008.

Concert reviews:
"a performance of the Seventh Symphony as cohesive and powerful as I can remember. This was a blinder from start to finish ... " - ****Financial Times

"the Seventh so often undercuts its own material with images of mortality and the grotesque that it takes a remarkable in terpreter to hold the thing together and drive it through to its final ambiguous shudder. Gergiev did so with bravura; one senses that he means every note with desparate conviction" - The Guardian
