On these two discs <http://img183.imageshack.us/img183/8881/img6d.jpg>
is a radio show called "I remember Mahler". The booklet that accompanies
the set describes the show as

"...two hours' worth of rare interviews with conductors renowned for
their commitment to Mahler's music and with musicians who actually
played under Mahler.  Bruno Walter's memories of his friendship with
Mahler, Leopold Stokowski's acceptance of the Mahler Medal from the
Bruckner Society of America, and Sir John Barbirolli's frank comments on
his crusade for Mahler form a suite of recollections from three
interpretive masters. These lead into one of the most extraordinary
collections of audio interviews ever assembled and broadcast in the
field of classical music, "I Remember Mahler," produced by William
Malloch for the FM radio station KPFK in Los Angeles. In 1964, on
Mahler's birthday, Malloch aired a two-hour program of interviews he had
conducted with musicians who had known Mahler, most of them having
played under him in New York.  The program has been heard in abbreviated
form on several releases, but our set offers nearly the entire two-hour
program, with small excisions where an anecdote conflicted with current
scholarship on Mahler. A splendid tribute to Mahler the man, it will
bring you as close to the remarkable composer-conductor as the spoken
word will allow."

What should the artist(s) be set to?
