Imagine Mahlers Ninth without tears. The symphony Mahler composed after the
death of his daughter and the diagnosis that would soon kill him, the symphony
that more than any other sings of bottomless grief and endless sorrow, the
symphony that more than any other sings the swan song of German music and
European culture, the symphony that more than any other confirms Mahlers status
as one of the great tragic artists of Western civilization without tears. It
cant be done, you say?
Sure it can. And, whats more, Mahlers Ninth is better without tears. In this
2004 recording by Michael Tilson Thomas with the San Francisco Symphony, Mahlers
Ninth is performed with restraint and dignity, but without tears. Tilson Thomas
and the San Francisco still sing of grief and sorrow, but without tears. They
still hymn the ineffable beauty of life in this world and the eternal luminosity
of life in the world to come. They still rise to climaxes of overwhelming
strength and sink into codas of unbearable poignancy. And they still accomplish
the greatest miracle of all by holding back the dying of the light with the
limitless humanity of their performance. But they do it without tears. And its
all the more moving for that. The recording is utterly transparent, allowing the
clear light of infinity to shine through.
