Title: I pre-ordered A. Fischer/Dusseldorf M9 from Presto Classical (mid Nov. release)
Post by: barryguerrero on October 12, 2020, 08:09:52 PM

I listened to this at Spotify and liked it well enough to order a CD copy. It's being released November 20 in England. I want to fully support this cycle.

I agree, I want to support this cycle.

I was a bit confused by this listing. So it wasn’t released on CD when it came out in May?

Despite some criticisms of the inner movements, I really like this M9. Plus, single disc!

The 29 May 2020 release was download only, 24/48 and 16/44.1 (which is how I have it).

Thanks for the clarification. I was low-key hoping it was the M2, but accidentally mis-labeled on the site. But alas.
Someday soon.

The LAST thing I need is yet another Mahler 9. However, I'd like hearing this one so much on Spotify, that I've decide to vote with my dollars. I'll probably sell off the Harding M9 on Harmonia Mundi (which is also really good). I'm greatly looking forward to an M6 with A. Fischer/Dusseldorf.

Just two more installments to go. I have no doubt that I’ll buy a box set if they make one.

I too like Fischer's M9th (more than his younger brother's), but as in his M3rd (and may be in others as well?) there are couple of blemishes in the playing that should have been corrected for the commercial release.
