About

The Thomas Christian Ensemble shows in this attractive double album with arrangements of the 4th symphony by Gustav Mahler and the 7th by Anton Bruckner that reduction of the instrumentation can bring a plus of experience. MDG reissues this original recording at a 2 for 1 special price featuring the addition of soprano Christiane Oelze who lends the heavenly vocal part in Mahler's Fourth. The clear recording envelops the instruments pleasantly with natural ambient sound which was lauded by the critics when first reviewed: "It's fascinating!" Fanfare raved over Bruckner and praised Mahler's "excellence of playing and sound". The "quite outstanding" (klassik.com) recording also made it onto the best list of the German Record Critics' Award - truly "hugely enjoyable!"
