MARBECKS COLLECTABLE: Mahler: Symphony No 9 (with works by Wagner & R. Strauss)

"Klemperer lets Mahler's score tell its own story and one cannot listen without remembering that he knew Mahler and worked with him...Klemperer's austere Metamorphosen is at the opposite pole from interpretations by Krauss, Karajan and others. It emerges as a magnificent structure - with flexible and viral string-playing." (Gramophone)
