Mariss Jansons oversees an ethereal reading of Mahler’s heartbreakingly reflective Ninth. The Latvian conductor, together with the excellent Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, navigates the emotional twists and turns of the symphony with remarkable depth and levity; the ensemble’s strings and horns are most brilliant in the quiet moments.
