I'm curious how others have remembered Mahler today?

Mahler who?   ;D

6 symphonies in a day?  :o
I listened to M1-7 on a very, very long trip but I can't exactly recommend it... Sometimes listening to everything at once takes away from the music.  I didn't have too much time yesterday but fit in Das Lied, M2, and M6.  (Which probably seems like I just went for his best known works but I normally don't spend as much time with the latter two as I should).

Yes, it's a lot of Mahler in one day... but working from home does have that nice side benefit! :)

Cheers,

Mahler's music is so connected to my psychological and emotional state,that I cannot jump fro a symphony to another.I'm generally in an obsession with a symphony for several days or weeks.Now it's M8,so i'll wait the last concert of Leipzig festival.

Sometimes (often) when I listen (really listen) to an M symphony, I'm totally drained afterwards, and there is nothing I want to hear after that. I just want silence.
