This is perhaps the best conceived and executed Mahler 5 for me. Humanity and emotion without sentimental excess. Walter is just superb.

Bruno Walter had a special gift of bringing out the best interpretation of any piece of music he was conducting. I had the privilege of seeing him at the LA Phil when he was something like 84 years old. My biggest impression was of the absolute control he had of the orchestra. He had a tiny baton on minimal movement of his hands... but he was in control!!! It must have been based on the respect they had for him.

Bernstein was buried with a copy of the Mahler 5 in his coffin

Make a list of the bests composers: The one who works with the largest variety of textures, sounds, instruments and VOICES, is also the one who better keeps the clearness of one ONLY VOICE. This is G.Mahler.
Now make a list of the bests conductors: Walter is my favorite performer when its about Mahler because he plays the light-shadow and make these voices CLEAR during all the piece, just like Mahler did, as composer AND as conductor.

As good as it gets.TY for posting.

My first Beethoven 6 was Walter. I was so lucky at such a young age. I've never been happy with any other performance. This goes also for Beethoven 7 allegretto.

I grew up on Bruno Walter--Mozart, Beethoven, Mahler, Bruckner. He remains one of my all-time favorites for his humanity.
