I appreciated the information given after the concert to all those who could not attend the performance and witness the applause. Thank you.
Is there a recording of this concert available for purchase?? It was fantastic right up until the part where it was cut off in the final few minutes! A wonderful job done by the NY Philharmonic!!
Thank you for providing us with this archival stream. I listened to the live broadcast on WQXR on September 10, then watched it the next evening on WNET. It truly was an amazing performance of this magnificent symphony! I will certainly revisit this site to listen again as often as I can over the next two weeks that this stream is available. Once again, thanks!
Maybe it was the mood of the day but I don't recall hearing Mahler's 2nd played with more feeling than the 9/11 performance by the NYPhilharmonic and guests. It was a riveting performance. Well done.
This archival stream will be available for two weeks only.
I was there and it was sublimely transcendent!
Is this broadcast going to be repeated?
Soy argentina. Una sola palabra
MARAVILLOSO!!!!!!
