For the sake of superior audio reproduction, Bruno Walter's studio recording for CBS of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 2 in C minor, "Resurrection," is to be preferred over this live recording of his February 17, 1957, radio broadcast from Carnegie Hall. But this reissue from Music and Arts may still hold interest for collectors who will regard this recording as an important piece of Walter memorabilia, since it marked his farewell to the New York Philharmonic and was one of his last performances of this symphony in its entirety. Granted, the sound quality of this monaural recording is boxy, muffled, and distant, and it takes considerable concentration to hear fine details; but once past these defects, the performance can be appreciated for its intense drama, high energy, and compelling singing. Soprano Maria Stader and contralto Maureen Forrester deliver the solos of the last two movements with rapturous expression, and the Westminster Choir is stirring in the closing ode, accompanied by an orchestra that seems especially committed and convincing on this important occasion. Of course, with all the caveats about this disc's problematic sound, listeners who want a vivid recording of this popular symphony should not put this historic artifact on their want lists, and instead should only try it out after hearing several different renditions.
