Mahler's colossal eighth symphony, literally a Symphony of a Thousand, was yet more proof that he was one of the most ambitious and visionary composers of the romantic era. There’s a supreme confidence in much of Mahler’s music – a sense that here was a composer who was utterly at home and assured of his own position in the world. The very nicknames of his symphonies (Titan, Resurrection and here the Symphony of a Thousand) only serve to highlight the point. And yet, when it came to his Symphony N., Mahler was troubled

Within my experience of Mahler performances, the Eighth Symphony is the most difficult of the ten for a conductor to & off' successfully. Like the Second, it is very much a public ceremonial piece, but for every dozen effective performances of No. 2, one would be lucky to encounter one or two of No. 8. The number of soloists is one handicap, for example-they must all be good. Again, there is the interpretative problem of balancing and reconciling Parts 1 and 2. Solti's Decca recording, made with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Vienna choirs in Vienna in 1971, is one of the most convincing performances of the symphony imaginable. It was a superb recording on LP, and its transfer to CD is a triumph, revealing even more detail and projecting even more powerfully the grandeur and majesty of Solti's conception.
