Symphony No. 5 |
Gustav Mahler, Composer
David Briggs, Organ Gustav Mahler, Composer |
Author: Christopher Nickol
With numerous Mahler performances, live and recorded, it’s questionable whether this transcription is as enjoyable or has the same impact as the original version. However, Briggs does it better than anyone else could; his performance is truly virtuosic, and Priory’s recording of the stunning Gloucester organ is first-rate.'
