Here are two broadcast concerts from the NY Philharmonic's 1976 Mahler Festival,
these two conducted by James Levine, Symphony No. 6 and No. 8. I haven't found
them on OperaShare before and they have been taken from my own off-air open reel
stereo tapes as broadcast in January, 1977 over Seattle KING-FM. Martin Bookspan
commentary included. The first 3 mvts of the 6th are merged so users may want to
insert tracks. mp3 files 320kbps

Decent offair stereo given a slight l channel bias. For those who burn CDs, the
second and third files can be combined to constiute the second disc with the
last mvt of the 6th and first of the 8th. 3 CDs altogether. Enjoy
