Dont get me wrong Seán I do think Kubeliks work is here is really good but I find the bass in the recording a bit weak and I do like a bit of omph there especially for Mahler. Having said that I found some very interesting aspects of the M7 here and I'll go back and listen to more of this set.Seán wrote:Shocked and stunned, it's probably my favourite cycle.

This is probably the Mahler set that I play the least as I find the recordings a little thin and lacking a bit of omph! Having said that I really enjoyed it this evening. No.7 is one of my favorites anyway.
As for my favorite cycle, well I guess it would have to be Bernstein's early cycle with Sony/Columbia.
