This 22 LP set is the capstone of the seven-time Grammy® award winning Mahler Recording Project, recorded live at Davies Symphony Hall from 2001-2009. The series, released in individual installments on Hybrid SACD, was a commercial success and lauded with endless laurels of critical acclaim.

"The discs, originally recorded in DSD and released on hybrid-stereo and (tasteful, even convincing) multichannel SACDs, were generally excellent sounding, with a rich tonality, wide and deep soundstaging, and terrific dynamic scaling and extended range. Not only have these qualities translated beautifully to vinyl, they actually, perhaps even surprisingly, sound better than ever."

-Wayne Garcia, The Absolute Sound (October 2011)
