Originally offered as a belated tribute on the centenary of Dimitri Mitropoulos' birth, this collection presents some of Mitropoulos's finest performances of Mahler, one of his favorite composers (he premiered the Mahler Sixth in America and died while rehearsing Mahler's Third), drawn primarily from the 1960 New York Mahler Festival. The original booklet essay has been replaced with a note by UK critic Tony Duggan. Originally issued in 1995 with same number; reissued 2011 in re-designed digipack with new booklet; audio unchanged. 6 CDs for the price of 4.
