Symphony no. 6

Album by Gustav Mahler & Essener Philharmoniker & Tomáš Netopil

Symphony No. 6 is the sixth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1904. The four-movement work is rooted in late-Romantic symphonic tradition, characterised by expansive orchestration, stark dynamic contrasts and a dramatic trajectory that marks it as a central piece of Mahler's middle-period output and an influential contribution to early 20th-century orchestral repertoire.
First released: 17th January 2020
