Looks great, but what conductor is N.N.?   I'm particularly drawn to the Salonen/Staatskapelle Dresden/Lili Paasakivi Mahler 3. I'd love a recording of that!  A Gewandhaus Mahler 8 sounds fun too.

I like the Chailly-M8th and Gatti-M9th line-up. :).

John,

Could the N.N. be a German abbreviation for To Be Announced or Not Named, or something like that?

N.N. stands for nomen nescio, Latin for "I do not know the name."
