Symphony no. 4

Album by Gustav Mahler & Tonhalle-Orchester Zürich & David Zinman & Ľuba Orgonášová

Symphony No. 4 is the fourth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1900. Scored for a relatively smaller orchestra than some of his earlier large-scale works, it combines late-Romantic orchestration with lighter, scherzo-like passages and concludes with a soprano solo in the finale, marking a move towards more concise forms and intimate expression in Mahler's middle-period output.
First released: 2008
