About

The San Francisco Symphony with Music Director Michael Tilson Thomas begin offering reissues of their award-winning and critically acclaimed Mahler cycle with Symphony No.1, in Hybrid SACD format and packaged in SACD jewel cases.

Mahler's Symphony No.1 was one of the most stunning debuts in symphonic music history. This powerful and passionate performance of Mahler's "Titan" was recorded during the SFS concerts of 19-23 September 2001, and captures the live-performance excitement of the Grammy-winning conductor-symphony partnership that the Los Angeles Times declared "the most exciting Mahler combination anywhere right now".

This is probably the best-played and most vividly engineered recording of Mahler’s First Symphony I’ve yet heard. The strings are silky, the woodwind solos dewy fresh, and the brass retain a brilliance from the first climax to the last.” – Gramophone

This recording receives my highest recommendation, and becomes my first choice among digital Firsts.” – Fanfare
