What I really wanted to throw in was the Symphony in E by Mahler's friend
Hans Rott (1858-1884), available on Hyperion or BIS and possibly otherwise,
and doubtless very old news to veteran Listers. Sounds like Mahler 1 but
was written well before, so actually Mahler 1 sounds like it. I don't wish
to accuse GM of plagiarism, but it does help to make the picture a little
clearer. Rott also wrote "songs, several orchestral works, a string
quartet and a string quintet", none of which I know to have been recorded.
BTW, I haven't heard much of Chailly's Mahler, but his Bruckner is
certainly the goods!
