Symphony no. 4

Album by Gustav Mahler & Nederlands Philharmonisch Orkest & Marc Albrecht & Elizabeth Watts

Symphony No. 4 is the fourth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1901. Scored for a relatively lighter orchestra than some of his larger-scale works and concluding with a vocal movement, the piece blends late-Romantic orchestral writing, folk-influenced motifs and a crystalline orchestral palette, marking a shift in Mahler's output toward more economical textures and clearer formal outlines.
