In Reply to: New Mahler 8th on Blu-ray; Chailly and Gewandhaus Orchester Leipzig posted by srl1 on November 13, 2011 at 12:53:20:

The trouble is that the "Symphony of a Thousand" is far from my favorite Mahler work, and I have two other hi-def audio performances of the work already (not to mention a couple of older CD's): Chailly's earlier performance with the Concertgebouw (on a Decca DVD-Audio disc), and Wit's newer performance with the Warsaw Philharmonic (on a Naxos Blu-Ray audio-only disc). I feel as if it's only a matter of time until I succumb and acquire the new Chailly/LGO Blu-ray disc too. (The same goes for the Resurrection Symphony.) BTW, I feel that Wit's performance is not inferior to Chailly's Concertgebouw performance at all, despite Chailly's bigger-name forces.

Anyway, thanks for the write-up - it makes my resistance to the new Chailly/LGO Blu-ray discs all the more futile! ;-)
