I have the complete Mahler symphonies on vinyl, Deutsche Grammophon, with Kubelik. I think that this recording is not easy to surpass.
I have the complete Mahler symphonies on CD as well, it is a Bulgarian recording from 1996. It is pretty nice, sometimes I want to listen to Mahler with one of my CD players (Beogram CD3300, Sony CDP101, Technics SL-P1200 etc). Soprano Lyudmila Hadzhieva's voice is beautiful, although, as an artist, I think we should not compare her with a Star like Janet Baker.
