it would get a million hits if it were listed as "Glenn Gould Conducts Mahler w/ Forrester" or something. Should change it!!

Hell yes. Glenn Gould and Forrester in the same room. That's like Richter and Oistrakh in the same room!

This is one of the best performances on youtube - and one of the finest performances anywhere of Mahler's finest song. It amazes me that it has so few hits.

Gold Standard Urlicht. Forrester has the unwavering control, serenity, pronunciation and depth unequalled or even approached by other famous singers, some of whom despite obvious "feeling", have very audible vibratos.Glenn Gould is a fine partner here.

La première fois que j'ai écouté sa grande voix de véritable Contralto fut , il y a lomgtemps de cela, dans le J.S.Bach Easter Oratorium. Elle demeure pour moi un exemple inégalé de musicalité, de dignité et de grande douceur dans la modulation de la voix, de véritable compréhension du genre de musique qu'à chaque fois elle chante - que ce soit Haendel, Purcell, Bach, Mahler ou les liederistes allemands. Un Contralto inoubliable, qui transmet la magie unique de la voix du Contralto.

He did, not terribly often though. He was going to do it a lot more but died before that could happen. His last record has him conducting Siegfried Idyll by Wagner with a small ensemble.

I think he brings beautiful sensitivity to the conducting in this piece. Gorgeous piece, thank you for sharing!

With or without baton is really a silly discussion (i'm being friendly now)It's the music that counts..You can like- or dislike the Mahler's of Georg Solti, Leonard Bernstein, Abbado or Bruno Walter, to name a few. You can call them complete poseurs as you wish, I like them, with or without baton (who cares really?), sounds great to me.

Just player Mahler 2 under Walter, with Forrester, then find this. Extraordinary.If you google Ms.Forrester, you'll see she's not in the happiest of states.What. A. Treat.

i have seen performances both ways, but it makes much more sense to me without a baton. conducting mahler to me is more like conjuring a magic spell from the core of the earth than leading an orchestra in music.
