Quite an unexpected surprise!

This was quite interesting. So enjoyable. I lost track of time. At first i noticed this was about 19 minutes or so, next it was almost over! Listening to this revealed a certain quality of timelessness. Very wonderfully introspective and instructive presentation.

I have really enjoyed these! What lovely insight and information, it truly is one of Mahler’s most beautiful symphonies, and the closing minutes of the final movement always brings tears and glee! To have the the connection to nature and Greek mythology just deepens my understanding of these universal themes. I also thought it was illuminating to draw the connections to Brahms and Beethoven. As a conductor, Mahler most certainly was not a stranger to this music. Contrarily, it must have been the paradigm, or world that shaped him! In the past comparisons in the symphonic sonata form he utilized was attributed to Bruckner and voicings farther attributed to Wagner . So it’s refreshing to hearing this! Cheers! This is cool

[@rogerwhite95]

I hope you enjoy it. It's a glorious symphony - from the unique, epic beginning to the tender, transcendent finale.

He’s like a giddy schoolboy!

... and had Mahler lived to witness (having gained security clearance!) the A bomb test at Alamogordo, NM, he could have said 'Finally! Fortissimo! 'But only until the H-bomb tests about 7 years later...

Mahler stealing themes from Beethoven, Brahms lol…I can already hear Beethoven An Die Fern Geliebe, slow movements from Op. 135 string quartet and as what FIscher pointed out the Brahm Symphony No. 1 😅
