Pierre Boulez conducts the Vienna Philharmonic in a highly acclaimed, meticulously detailed recording of Mahler's notoriously tragic 'Tragic' Symphony. The performance highlights Boulez's signature analytical precision, revealing the incredibly dense, complex counterpoint of the massive orchestration without sacrificing the piece's profound emotional devastation. It is widely considered one of the definitive modern interpretations of the demanding Romantic-era masterwork.
