Finale from Symphony No. 3 - Gustav Mahler 

This was the finale of 2 concerts 5/5/91 for Carnegie's 100 anniversary. Much of the concerts are also on RU-vid. Both concerts were the NYP with conducting shared by Mehta & Levine. It was supposed to be Mehta & Bernstein but as Bernstein died the fall of 90 they got Levine. Zubin made a speech dedicating this performance to Lenny. It was the end of a very long day & never to be forgotten.

Thank you for sharing this glorious finale!

One of the most beautiful pieces of orchestration !! The whole symphony 3 has been one of my favorites for 40 years.

Thank you. No words.

The late great Roland Kohloff playing the timpani

The Phil's are fantastic in this performance (Smith and Meyers)!

Mehta has a wonderful last movement of this with LA Phil from 1980s

🙏

wow

Was this in Carnegie Hall?

And all the symphony?

I find this guy quite superfluous and overrated.
