'A great, great Mahler fifth.' Features a faster finale but a 'really long' Adagietto that 'really works.'

Leonard Bernstein / Vienna Philharmonic

'Bernstein, of course, always brought home the emotion... it just all hangs out... Sounds fantastic.'

Václav Neumann / Leipzig Gewandhaus

'Maybe a little bit on the... reserved side, but I think it works really well. Everything just sounds beautiful, just well-paced.'

Rudolf Schwarz / London Symphony
