Same as above. Check out Daniel Hardings M1 at Spotify. As of now (June 20), only the first movement is there.

It actually reminds me of Bertini’s, which is the best reading of the first movement I’ve heard. Bertini’s flows absolutely perfectly; I’ve never heard it done better.

Can't argue with that.

Maybe it’s a tempo thing. Maybe for those last few minutes there’s a sweet spot in tempo that few conductors get right. I think Yannick N-S does the first movement very well too.

Holy SMOKES. This is one heck of a Mahler 1.
It’s out now, digitally. Just listened on Spotify.
Harding carries that excitement from the first movement straight to the end.

That's it! I'm going to get this box, one way or another.

Barry, have you had a chance to hear this yet? The finale is thrilling.
My only complaint is more tams in the third movement would be nice, but you can still hear the overtones. It’s inaudible in most recordings anyway.
He also does that accelerando thing at the start of the second movement, but it sounds more natural like Honeck’s, and less forced and robotic like Abbado’s Berlin account.

Thanks. Not yet. I'm a bit busy this month.
