Mahler: Second Symphony
Baker, Harper; Klemperer
London, 1962
$5.95
Description:
At 78 years old, Otto Klemperer conducts a stirring and impassioned account of Mahler's Second Symphony, defying expectations with his commanding energy and rapturous pacing. Janet Baker brings a sense of passionate refinement to the alto solos, while Heather Harper delivers her brief lines with radiant, almost celestial beauty. The sound is generally good, though about two minutes of music are missing from the final movement.
