Symphonie no. 1

Album by Gustav Mahler & Bamberger Symphoniker & Jonathan Nott

Symphony No. 1 is the first symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, premiered in 1889. Musically, it combines late-Romantic orchestration, folk-influenced melodies and expansive orchestral textures with programme elements, and it stands as an early statement of Mahler's symphonic approach that foreshadows the scale and techniques of his later works.
First released: 11th April 2008
