http://www.musicweb-international.com/classrev/2012/Mar12/Mahler_sy3_ICAC5033.htm Posted by Tim Perry on March 30, 2012, 2:16 am Having just read JQ's review of Tennstedt's live Mahler 3, I find myself yet again in violent agreement with him. I just wanted to point out that there is a live Mahler 4 available on Profil from Tennstedt's pre-LPO days. I haven't heard that one. There was another live Mahler 4 from a Boston Symphony (?) concert on one of those Italian bootleg labels. And there is a live Mahler 9 from a Tennstedt concert with the NY Phil that exists in a private bootleg and can be found occassionally on the interweb.

The live M9 by Tennstedt and the NYPO, cited above, was from a 1982 concert on the 20th anniversary of the death of Bruno Walter. I believe that there's also a (private?) tape of a Tennstedt M9 with the Philadelphia Orchestra from 1988.

Phyllis Bryn-Julson was the soprano.

ICA Classics is about to release the Boston Mahler 4 on DVD: http://www.crotchet.co.uk/ICAD5072.html
