The orchestral playing is faultless. They encompass every aspect of the score with ease. Maybe the strings, violins in particular, sound small. But this may be due to decisions in the control room, or my tastes and perceptions, and it is a small quibble. I especially enjoyed the principal trumpet who has a lovely line in vibrato.
Percussion is splendid, bass drum especially well caught.
All in all this an interesting sound for Mahler 6 th . To the interpretation, and the fat is in the fire from the word go. Mahlerians and it is here that also pivots my own reactions and my lack of firm conclusions. The fact is that Levi launches his march on the fastest end of the scale. If this isn't problem enough there is no exposition repeat to counterbalance.
