Can you recommend a Das Lied von der Erde with a baritone playing the role of the alto (although mine sounds more like a mezzo)?

I have tried looking for videos on youtube just to see how it would sound like but failed to find one.

[Drasko]

Can't really recommend, since I've heard (and have) only one recording: Fiecher-Dieskau with James King, Bernstein conducting. It sure sounds fine, though I definitely prefer female voice in the part.
There aren't that many recordings with all male cast, five if I'm not forgetting some: two with Fischer-Dieskau, two with Hampson and one with Nagano conducting, can't recall the baritone. You could choose according to which singer you generally prefer.

You've engaged my curiosity - any particular reason you're looking for such a recording?

[DavidRoss]

A hearty recommendation for MTT/SFS--the only recording with baritone that I would consider if I could have but one disc on my desert island.  Hampson is surprisingly good--much better than for Rattle, methinks, and MTT's way with this superb orchestra is as dreamy as it gets--languid, world-weary, sensual, and damned near ideal.

Rats!  I saw the word "baritone", the instrument that my son recently took up and thought this small beast finally cracked the classical music barrier.

Well, it has--but it's usually called "tenor tuba."

There's also Salonen's, with Domingo and Bo Skovhus.  I think that's the only recording of it (with a baritone) I've actually heard.  Once.

Not the Nagano.

I do recommend the Bernstein with Fischer Dieskau.

There is also a version by Kletzki with DFD and Murray Dickie. I had it on tape and enjoyed it. Dickie was not so internationally famous as some tenors, but was well respected in central Europe and his contribution is very good. DFD is excellent.

Not so. Tenor tuba = euphonium - different instrument!
