Zdenek Macal, Czech Philharmonic Orchestra - Mahler: Symphony No. 2 (2008) [Japan] 2x PS3 ISO + DSD64 + Hi-Res FLAC

Once the least performed and recorded of Gustav Mahler's symphonies, due mostly to its taxing length, the Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection" in C minor now appears with some regularity on disc and with increasing frequency on SACDs. This recording from Exton, featuring Zdenek Mácal and the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, is remarkable for its spacious sound, close-up details, and wide-frequency range, and the interpretation is on a par with many other first-rate performances, so finding points of distinction between them is perhaps a futile endeavor, especially since only aficionados of this work will detect them. Mácal is certainly attuned to Mahler's extreme mood swings and a unique mix of innocent reverence and sardonic parody, and there is nothing lacking in the CPO's brilliant execution of the score, which displays many extended techniques and an extraordinary palette of tone colors.

Tracklist:

01. Mahler: Symphony No.2 "Resurrection" - I. Allegro maestoso (Totenfeier)
02. Mahler: Symphony No.2 "Resurrection" - II. Andante moderato
03. Mahler: Symphony No.2 "Resurrection" - III. Scherzo. In ruhig fließender Bewegung
04. Mahler: Symphony No.2 "Resurrection" - IV. "Urlicht". Sehr feierlich, aber schlicht
05. Mahler: Symphony No.2 "Resurrection" - V. Im Tempo des Scherzos
