You can definitely hear why we need that faster tempo in the modern day. Obviously it’s notated to be felt slower but, after the countless times it’s been used for sadness, this faster tempo helps the modern listener to hear the love letter written deep into it
Ben thanks for gifting me a love for this 4th movement through your readings. It made no sense to me as a heavy handed funeral piece. It does as a love song that sounds like it could’ve almost been sung as a lullaby. Man, fantastic.
I have never heard the gliss transition at 6:45 in any other recording of this piece? I'm very curious as to why that is! It was somewhat shocking, in a good way. I really loved the interpretation that was voiced in this performance. Beautiful!
That particular glissando is a very characteristic nuance in the Adagietto. I'm sure that since you've discovered it you can hear it pretty much in all recordings and performances of the piece.

Mahlers own performance was sad to be around 9 minutes. So i dont think it should be played any slower.
@@jessemoog5310 I agree. It is written Adagietto, not Adagio - so should not be played too slowly. This performance sounds achingly beautiful

Thank you very much for your great performance
What a string team
You have a great conductor
Hope to attend your concert someday
So great to watch it live, and see the drama in the faces of the players. Thank you for making it available.
Absolutely magnificent
This is deep deep deep deep.
Excelente.

11:28 it happens to the best of us
Zander like Karajan, hear only what he wants to hear.
He taught us canned music can not replace live performance.
