Description
ARTIST: GUSTAV MAHLER
TITLE: SYMPHONY No.2
RECORD LABEL: DEUTSCHE GRAMMOPHON 423 395-1. Box set of 2 LPs plus 28-page booklet (CD sized). Made in West Germany; 1986. Original inner sleeves included.
Reasonable reserve on this very rare item.
DESCRIPTION:
Very highly regarded live performance of this great work, now very difficult to find on vinyl.
In superb condition.
from an AMAZON review:
This is the most imposing performance of this symphony currently available. The tempos are rather slow, but Leonard Bernstein sustains the music's tension superbly, and the climaxes are every bit as overwhelming as they must be to justify the time he takes getting there. The concerts from which this recording derives were among the musical events of a lifetime, and much of that sense of occasion has found its way onto th[ese] disc[s]. If you want to be blown away by music, then this baby's for you.
CONDITION:
VINYL (play- & visually graded): NEAR MINT minus, 3 very light hairline marks that are not audible or feelable. Very shiny mirrorlike surface. Huge dynamic range. Beautifully quiet surfaces.

BOOKLET: as new.
Original inner sleeves have 1 small ink stroke on each.
