Blu-ray: Mahler Symphonies 1-9, Blu-ray Box Set + free extra. Great Value. Chailly/Abbado

Great deal!

Mahler Symphonies - Blu-ray Box Set - Riccardo Chailly with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, [Accentus Music: ACC60504] [2021]

I am also including Mahler Symphony No. 3 from Claudio Abbado and the Lucerne Festival Orchestra, also on Blu-ray. The Chailly box set omits the 3rd symphony so the Abbado performance will complement and complete the cycle. An added bonus I am adding for free.

All Blu-rays are brand new and still in their cellophane - please refer to photos for a better idea of contents, for example the Chailly box set also contains complementary documentaries. Also, please feel free to ask any questions and I will endeavour to answer them quickly and to the best of my ability.

Thank you for viewing this item.

The eight Mahler symphonies contained in this box were all recorded live as part of the Leipzig Mahler cycle that began with the acclaimed Mahler Festival in 2011. They once again confirmed the Gewandhausorchester's reputation as a Mahler reference orchestra, which was consolidated in particular thanks to the intensive examination of Mahler's work under the direction of former Gewandhaus Kapellmeister Riccardo Chailly, who emphasized the compositional qualities of the works, traced the origins of their interpretive history and avoided false pathos and sentimentality despite all the drama and urgency. This becomes clear especially in the more than two hours of documentation material which supplements these exceptional Mahler recordings. In addition to its musical excellence, the Leipzig Mahler cycle impresses with its graphic design. Each cover of the cycle is adorned with a work by the Leipzig painter Neo Rauch that was inspired by Mahler's music and painted specifically for this cycle.
