Symphony no. 1 / Blumine

Album by Gustav Mahler & Tonhalle‐Orchester Zürich & David Zinman

Symphony No. 1 is a symphonic composition by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1888. The work combines late-Romantic orchestration with programme-like elements and folk-inflected motifs, employing bold contrasts of brass and strings and an expanded symphonic structure that signalled Mahler's emergence as a major symphonist in the late 19th century.
