Earth Day Listening
Decca 417 783-2
I am going to try to bring back the “What Are You Listening to Lately?” feature I used to post regularly.
While I haven’t exactly been successful in making it an Earth Day tradition, today I did listen to Gustav Mahler’s great orchestral song cycle, Das Lied von der Erde. The Decca compact disc with Leonard Bernstein conducting the Vienna Philharmonic–and soloists James King and Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau–is my only recording of this music, but I don’t feel the need to own another, such is the quality.
I will try to upload previous editions of “WAYLTL?” as time permits.
