Otto Klemperer’s #Mahler thread.
Recently I received a Mahler Second Symphony program, from 1935 (video clip from it and one from 1967, here as well). So I decided to make a list of his Mahler recordings (and a few from other composers) Hope you enjoy it. Image
In 1933 he fled Nazi Germany and started a six-year tenure with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, until 1939 (year of his brain surgery). Sadly he suffered paralysis because of it.He also struggled with his mood disorder the same year.
Here’s Mozart 35 (1938)
Klemperer has some rare recordings, from 1924 (Staatkapelle Berlin) a Beethoven 1st symphony and a Bruckner 8th (both acoustic recordings). A Wagner Siegfried Idyll, and Tristan Prelude from 1927. Also a Strauss’ Salome (same year with the same orchestra). ImageImage

Gustav #Mahler born on this day in 1860. Brief introductory thread.
The difficulty with starting a voyage into Mahler’s work, is that Gustav the man, is rarely separated from Mahler the Composer (or Conductor). And this, in the beginning makes it difficult to explore his oeuvre.
When you listen to his Kindertotenlieder or his Adagietto, his crazy Seventh or emotionally draining Ninth, context is important. Although this is fundamental in a historical sense, in many if not all composers, in Mahler it takes a life of its own.
Alma, his wife, Bruno Walter his student and friend, Justine his sister, Austria in the 1900’s; all have a complex and interesting story that contribute to Mahler and his work. Granted you don’t need to read about this, but like an opera, reading the libretto helps the enjoyment.
