Complete your Mahler - Leonard Bernstein, Janet Baker, Israel Philharmonic Orchestra, New York Philharmonic collection.
Mahler: Symphony No. 1- Titan, Symphony No. 10 (Adagio).
Leonard Bernstein’s first complete cycle of the Mahler symphonies, in the Japanese stereo/multichannel releases of what were originally 3-channel recordings. When Mahler died only the first movement adagio of his 10th symphony was largely completed (along with a small third movement entitled Purgatorio)
New York Philharmonic Leonard Bernstein (conductor). Janet Baker Israel Philharmonic Leonard Bernstein (conductor). The Adagio of 10 has virtually no tape hiss audible in stereo. The contrast to the opening of the KIndertotenlieder is quite jarring with its significant tape hiss and insufficient space between the two performances. As these are 1970s vintage tapes, I suspect that in the Adagio, the CBS engineers employed excess Dolby noise reduction in the original recording. This has led to the negligible tape hiss, but also a shearing of the upper harmonics. The sound is on the dull side compared to what we are now used to in good analogue or DSD recordings.

In the Kindertotenlieder, Janet Baker's signing is unmatchable. She shines radiantly in every song. The last sung passage of In diesem Wetter is exquisite. Baker keeps her voice steady and is never lacking in purity throughout. She sounds haunting at times, too. It is a truly amazing musical experience. The 10th Adagio is a masterpiece. It's power sends shivers throughout. This is a definitive recording of the only movement Mahler got to complete of his last Symphony. As good as the LP vinyl version of this music, the transfer to SACD is heavenly. It completed, for me the entire set.
The Bernstein–Mahler cycle usually refers to two separate audio recordings of the symphonies of composer Gustav Mahler, as performed by conductor Leonard Bernstein in the 1960s and 1980s respectively. Bernstein's first Mahler cycle was the first (of now many) complete Mahler cycles with symphonies 1-9 recorded between 1960 and 1967 on the CBS now Sony label
