Did anyone try this one?

Very curious about Hiroshi Wakasugi's cycle with NHK. Please allow me the following:
1. Has anyone here heard it? Any opinions?
2. Owns it?  Where did you purchase it?

My only contact with his recordings are the complete Bruckner with NHK and the two he did with Saarbrücken, and some Takemitsu.

Thank you for your consideration.

I think you're best source for looking into Wakasugi Mahler is HMV Japan. It's clearly not readily available, at least not in the west. I've heard some of his. I thought it was good, but not particularly exceptional. In Mahler I'm more impressed with Ken-Ichiro Kobayashi, who recorded on both Canyon Classics and Exton (I believe they may have been the same company).

Ken Ichiro Kobayashi DID M8 in Japan and recorded it for Exton. I think it is on Spotify or somewhere.

As for Pesek's Mahler cycle I am not aware of it. He did a couple of Mahler, e.g., M4, M9, but not the entire cycle as far as I can recall.

[Pesek] did a couple of Mahler, e.g., M4, M9, but not the entire cycle as far as I can recall.

There's a complete Mahler cycle (1–9 and 10 Adagio) from Pesek with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra on Japanese Victor. He also did 1 and 9 with the Royal Philharmonic on Virgin Classics.

I found the Pesek on the Czech Philharmonic store. About $90-something plus shipping.

Couldn’t find Wakasugi’s cycle on Japanese sites but it’s quite present on EBay (about $200.)
