ok, just out of curiosity, what to you makes that finale so Mahlerian?
Just seeing Lenny's face in that video I can assure you that he missed the point completely of that finale. It's a beautiful interpretation. Really. It's wrong. But beautiful. Bernstein didn't understand what Schostakowitch was saying there. At all.
But just so we know: how is that "mahler" to you?

In musical criticism, when issues of craft and technical consideration are set aside, what remains is more subjective. However, until technical issues are dealt with, the subjective portion bears considerably less weight.
