Please note: there are over 50 pages of preliminary sketches that aided Cooke in filling in some of the missing harmony and counterpoint, especially in the second movement. Naturally, these sketch pages can not be shown in a continuous video. There's far less that had to be composed to fill the less fully textured portions of this great symphony than might be supposed.

I’m a Mahler fan, one might say, though i cannot read notes, or play an instrument, nor do i know anything about composing, but i know what i like. I fell in love with Mahler’s music ever since i first heard it in that Italian film (no explanation needed, i presume), and wanted to hear everything he made. I wouldn’t be able to tell if this version is the best. What i can say is that it sounds and feels profoundly Mahlerian to me. I can sympathize with great Mahler interpreters such as Bernstein, who had reasonable arguments as to why he did not want to perform the 10th (except the Adagio), but ultimately it would have been a shame and borderline criminal to deprive humanity of this wonderful work.

@Musicrafter123 жыл бұрын
Most striking about Cooke's realization is that he does not embellish it more than he has to. He leaves an extremely sparse string texture underneath which really brings out the flute in a special way. Most other completions embellish it a lot more and I really don't like that. Sure, maybe Mahler would have intended a more fleshed out texture but I honestly like Cooke's approach of adding as little as possible. If what Mahler wrote stands on its own (or almost does) sufficiently, he'll let it be.

This is one of those symphonies that takes you a few times to appreciate. The first time I listened to it, I liked it, but didn't think it was Mahler's best. Now, after listening to it many times, I think it is one of the greatest pieces of music ever written, or rather, partially written.

There is so much more present in these sketches than some detractors would have you believe, and needs no added detail to fully work (and foolishly applied in some realizations), as has been frequently claimed. A true Mahler expert, such as Deryck Cooke, needed far fewer "deductions" than have been accorded him for his wonderful work in bringing this symphony to a performable edition-and surely, judging by the sound of it, it's infinitely closer to Mahler's vision than often has been allowed. 100% viable as a concert work by Mahler-in fact, could it be his greatest symphony?
@fredrickroll064 жыл бұрын
I am convinced that is IS his greatest symphony - even though the 6th, the 9th, and "Das Lied von der Erde" are all summits of human artistic genius! Ever since having heard Cooke's version of the 10th for the first time, I would not have wanted ever to live without it again!

@@fredrickroll06 I can see that you are on the same page as me. . . right down to Das Lied, 6 and 9, as well. I still have a great soft spot for 1 (Horenstein/LSO), and, of course, 8 can't be ignored! That's not to say the rest are of no consequence, of course-just that the choices out of all are the top ones! But No. 10 does indeed come from somewhere else. . . .

Ok but why at 6:35 the solo horn isn’t playing an E# as written in the manuscript on beat 4? There is never a consensus on that. We find recordings sometimes as for this one an F# being played ... it always been a schock for me. I played both : the Cooke version and the adagio alone as principal horn and always played an E#.

Un sommet déchirant de la mystique musicale) pour des querelles de puristes... D. Cooke a fait un fameux travail qui mérite une reconnaissance absolue, unanime.

I think the 9th is the saddest because there's no catharsis or resolution. For all the heartbreak in the 10th, the last 5 glorious minutes not only resolve this symphony, but brings Mahler's entire output to a very satisfying conclusion. Mahler wrote: to live for you, to die for you Almschi!” over the last bars. And the extraordinary fortissimo outburst right before the final bars is a very clear reference to the climax of Isolde's Liebestod from the end if Tristan and Isolde.

If you mean the blows on the bass drum in the Finale, Mahler wrote in the score (addressed to Alma), "Only you know what it means." He and Alma watched from the window of their hotel room the funeral of a fireman who died in the line of duty. The only music played at the funeral was these strokes on the bass drum. The scales in the tuba are also a symbol of Death.

Like other's have pointed out "unfinished" in the case of the Mahler 10 does not mean incomplete. Like it does with for example Schubert's "Unfinished" or the Mozart Requiem. Horziontally the work is done. From the first bar of the Adagio to the final chord of the Finale. All laid out in sketch. Vertically it is unfinished.
