Pentatone has a rising star! Venezuelan Rafael Payare has been making a name for himself for the past few years, and these two newer releases from Pentatone are lighting up my listening room. - Bill Dodd, NativeDSD Senior Reviewer Read Full Review

Mahler's Last Optimistic Symphony The Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal and its Music Director Rafael Payare make their NativeDSD debut on the Pentatone label with Mahler’s 5th Symphony. The album is also the first recording under Payare’s tenure. It begins a longer recording relationship with the Pentatone label. For Payare, the Fifth is the last symphony that shows Mahler still looking forward to what the future might bring, unlike his subsequent, much darker and existential works. Despite that optimism, there is enough tragedy and struggle along the way, resonating with Mahler’s life at the time of creation. Payare’s proficiency in late-Romantic repertoire coupled with the matured, distinctive sound of the Montréal players make this a collaboration to look out for. NativeDSD Senior Reviewer Bill Dodd calls the album "An Outstanding Mahler 5th!" This album is available in Stereo and 5.1 Channel Surround Sound DSD 256, DSD 128, DSD 64 and DXD as well as Stereo DSD 512, FLAC 24/192 and FLAC 24/96. It is a DSD Exclusive, Not Available on SACD release. Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal Rafael Payare, Conductor
