When I recorded this show we had no access to our Music Librarian software because of Crowd Strike!  I chose two really fine BSO recordings from back in the day!

Mahler’s birthday is 7/7 and David Zinman’s is 7/9!  It makes sense to play some Mahler and a classic Tchaikovsky recording with the BSO.
