Post Subject: Yep, Barbirolli would do it...Posted by Romy the Cat on: 1/22/2019
When I was making a sarcastic joke about you begin to enjoy slow interpretations (something that any VERY good playback should do to a system owner) and referred you to the Barbirolli’s Mahler of cause I mean the exquisite  performance of 1967 of Sir Barbirolli with New Philharmonia. The “Allegro” movement is so much out of this would that I hardly believe anybody would listen any other version of Mahler 6 after listening to what Barbirolli did with it. It was told that Rostropovich pull out all his own recordings of Elgar cello concerto and never recorded it again after he heard the Jacqueline du Pre’s  take on the concerto in August 1965, ironically with the same Barbirolli… I have no idea why people keep recording the M6 after Barbirolli 1967. Whatever was possible to be expressed in that music was done by maestro Barbirolli.
