Great news about the Rattle recording!! I don't own a Mahler 8 and I am a big fan of Rattle's.
Hey I was ripping more CDs from my collection and came across a CD I bought for a Mahler seminar I took in graduate school. It is Barenboim/Fischer-Dieskau doing Des Knaben Wunderhorn and Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen. For those of you who haven't listened to his vocal music, some of the material from the First symphony was taken from the Lieder. This recording is beautiful. Great sound. Fischer-Dieskau is the man for baritone lieder and he doesn't disappoint on this recording. I am much more an instrumental music lover than vocal, but some of these late romantic recordings with voice are stunning. Anyway, I highly recommend this CD if you are looking to expand from the symphonies.
