I cannot speak for the Mahler Foundation, except to say I have had similar experiences in the past. That said, they do a sterling job, presumably with little funding, so maybe resources are occasionally stretched.
I believe Bernstein was extremely fond of Mahler's Third Symphony - it was of course the work he selected to be performed at his final concert as the NYPO's principal conductor. That must have been some concert !
Best wishes,

Thanks Lee !
Your reply was above my expectations. Took me a few days to digest. The Fifth by Karajan and Shipway are among my favourites too. Don't know why so many reviewers dislike them. On another note, I wrote to the Mahler Foundation on a 1971 Live Bernstein Mahler 3 with the IPO that I have and they missed (Helicon 02-9682) and they never replied! Do they reply to e-mails?
