Thumbs up!  It's taking me a bit longer (so will run into January).  My wish is to listen to each performance of each quartet twice (including the Borodin set I'm still awaiting).  The 12th is the half way mark # 8 on the list.

The 7th is on deck.  8)

Mahler: Symphony No. 5 (Daniele Gatti / Concertgebouw) - Slower than many, and with an operatic grandeur. (I haven't heard much of Gatti's work, either live or recorded.)

Liked it so much had to dip into a little bit of another one, the final movement of No. 3 - quite resplendent - with Mariss Jansons.

Gatti did a great job here in Boston with, if I do not misremember, the Shostakovich Opus 43, Bruce.

What are your thoughts, Mr. MNDave? I may need to get this. I just purchased the Anima Eterna/Immerseel set of Schubert's complete, which is solid from beginning to end, but I have really enjoyed the few Kleiber recordings.
