  • Choir is too soft its a bit fast as well ... the Bernstein version on is here is FAR superior to this performance.

  • I think that the new gold standard in Mahler's "Ressurection" is Gustavo Dudamel at the 2011 BBC Proms with the Simon Bolivar Orchestra and the National Youth Choir of Great Britain . Its on YouTube.

  • The gold standard has to be the Rattle with CBSO in his final concert in Birmingham. It is like a master class in conducting...and how passion drives this piece. In some respects, it doesn't matter who is conducting because the music is greater than everything.

  • Fine effort from this group but the gold stardard has to be from Abbado and the LFO.

  • This is not a professional orchestra, and they do a great great job for what they do. I went to hear them play Mahler 3, and it was very adequate. You must remember what you have here - an orchestra of people who come together for the love of Mahler. Berlin it ain't, but boy would I love to play with them!

  • Nice job... and also nice to hear real bells in the finale. OK, it's not a world-class performance, but it's a first rate performance by a very good regional group!

  • Great, good, even not so good, they all bring me to tears... the music is just so powerful and gorgeous. Can't help but be moved!Thank you Mahler...

  • I totally agree: Rattle's version, Bernstein's version, Myung Whun Chung's version, Solti's version and Abbado's version are all perfection.

    But still Haitink is better. Sorry.

  • Where has Rattle's ending of 2 gone with the CBSO? PLEASE re-post!
