Might need to rob a bank for this

The Bartok, Debussy, Bruckner and Messiaen from his DG/Universal era are incredible. His Mahler cycle is uneven - #5,7 and Das Lied don’t really work and #6 and 9 are half brilliant. #1-4 and 8 are amazing. The Webern cycle and his own works are intoxicatingly exquisite which I understand is not what some people want from this music - I’ve seen a lot of preference for the Columbia versions as having more bite. I think this kind of jewelry for the ears is exactly what he does best as a conductor though and I mean that as high praise.

His Mahler 6 has always been my favourite version of that work. Recently I've been huffing his Schoenberg Pelleas, I love it so much.

Man his Mahler 6 is really close, there’s a lot I really love about it. I’m due a relisten, I’ve probably heard it ten times but not in the last three or so years
