As some of your might know I am not huge in Mahler. It is not that I hate Mahler and his music but I do not like how Mahler music is customary being played. They play Mahler like it is some kind of scared porcupine, sticking out his needles; I do not like this vision of Mahler. I like when Mahler is played like symphonic music instead of harmonically detached, abrupt and choppy Mahler Staccato Poems.
I however have my very secretive weapon to fight this type of play - the Midbass Horn. What I detects that with my “tent to act slowly” Midbass Horn the barbaric abruptness if some Mahler interpretations become more lucid. It is like a very mild conversion of Gilbert Kaplan’s first take on Resurrection to the Stokowski take on Resurrection in 1975 with Fassbaender and Price. The first one sound like electrocuted chicken. The second sounds like a wonderful a thoughtful music. No, a Midbass Horn will not convert fist into second one but it might make the unreasonably-staccato events softer.
