Mahler online

If, as in provincial New York, there are no live Mahler events in your town on the anniversary of his death, the Internet is ready to pick up the slack. Medici.tv is offering the complete symphonies with the Orchestre de Paris under Christoph Eschenbach. (Free with registration.) Arte will provide live webcasts from the Mahler Festival in Leipzig, with performances by the Gewandhaus Orchestra, the Vienna Philharmonic, the New York Phil, the Dresden Staatskapelle, the London Symphony, the Zurich Tonhalle, the Mahler Chamber Orchestra, the Bavarian Radio Symphony, and the MDR Symphony. (A morning concert with the Concertgebouw is omitted.) And for ten euros you can buy access to the Berlin Philharmonic's special concert under the baton of Claudio Abbado, with Anne Sofie von Otter and Jonas Kaufmann singing Das Lied von der Erde.
