Mahler Symphony 2 - Movement V

In recording one, for the "Mahler Symphony 2 - Movement V", the conductor Claudio Abbado starts the movement with an adagio tempo and with a loud thunder like sound with the drums, cymbals and basses. Around 50 seconds, the piece gets softer and lighter sounding - almost like fairies flying around. Then, the piece gets smoother and more lullaby sounding. The piece ends with decrescendo and then fades away. As the next song beings, a clarinet starts …

…It is different in the sense where there is the loony toons theme song as well as a more intense tempo. Overall, I would prefer the "Mahler Symphony 2 - Movement V" conducted by Claudio Abbado because to me, it seems that his version has more emotion in it. Though emotion is not the most important thing in music, I found that the tempo and dynamics were more noticeable and used more often in his version.
