Daniell Barenboim conducts Mahler Symphony No- 9

Product Description Performed as a complete cycle in Berlin, Vienna and New York, the Mahler concerts were a tremendous success. The Financial Times wrote 'New York is going Mahler mad.' This DVD includes a fascinating 22 minute documentary on the musical world of Mahler as seen by Barenboim and Boulez. Review The camerawork here is strong, bringing the viewer into the most interesting sections of the orchestra at any given moment, and doing so in a particularly musical fashion. For Barenboim and Boulez, the Mahler Project was as much about developing a relationship with a particular orchestra as it was with the composer; short of actually being with them in the concert hall, this is probably the best way to experience the results. --Gramophone, Ken Smith, September 2011
