Symphonie no. 1

Album by Gustav Mahler & Chicago Symphony Orchestra & Claudio Abbado

Symphony No. 1 is the first symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1888 and first performed in 1889. The work employs late-Romantic orchestration, broad dynamic contrasts and folk-influenced melodies, bridging his earlier Lieder-based writing with the large-scale, programme-inflected symphonic works that followed and marking an important early stage in his development as a symphonist.

First released: 1982
