Symphonie Nr. 1

Album by Gustav Mahler & Sofia Philharmonic & Emil Tabakov

Symphonie Nr. 1 is the first symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1888 and first performed in 1889. Blending late-Romantic orchestral forces with folk-like melodies, dramatic contrasts and innovative orchestration, the work marks Mahler's early move towards large-scale symphonic writing and establishes musical ideas he expanded in his later symphonies.
First released: 2004
