Musical America - Review of Season 3 by Clive Paget


"Ambitiously comprehensive, packed with red meat and laced with anecdote, even Mahler experts should expect to learn something here, while newcomers can rest assured that Cohen’s investigation of 19th-century music and philosophy is perfectly pitched to avoid flying over the average listener’s head. [...] 'Embrace Everything' remains a must-hear for concertgoers and homebodies alike."

The New Yorker - Review of Season 1 by Sarah Larson


"Its four-episode first season, which includes commentary by the conductor Michael Tilson Thomas, dives into the composer’s glorious Symphony No. 1, deftly combining music, close observation, stories, and readings of Mahler’s letters in a buoyant style that suggests a “Peter and the Wolf” for grownups."

Musical America - Review of Season 1 by Clive Paget


"Immaculately edited, these podcasts are particularly impressive for the sheer quantity of information Cohen is able to process within his allotted span of 75 minutes, without ever appearing to sound rushed. Of course, it was Mahler who once told Sibelius that “a symphony must be like the world—it must contain everything” and Cohen accordingly realizes the impossibility of drawing final conclusions, though he sets forth many intriguing possibilities."
