I hope that you enjoy those prerfromances. I love the CSO, I think that they are marvellous Mahlerians but I'm not sure about Boulez.

I have not heard Boulez conducting Mahler. I have always been put off by so much negative comment. I will be very interested to see how you get on there Darren.

I already have a handful of Boulez's Mahler recordings and I find them to be very interesting and well worth hearing

I first CD that I heard him performing on was the Bach Cello Suites and since then I have tried to collect him performing all of the major repetoire for Cello.

some beautiful pieces of music there Fergus...

do you have the Thea King in Brahms, by any chance? well worth the investment, for comparison:

although I must admit, I have seen it quite a bit cheaper than that...

not quite a bargain, but very reasonably priced...
