Symphony no. 9

Album by Gustav Mahler & Narodowa Orkiestra Symfoniczna Polskiego Radia w Katowicach & Michael Halász

Symphony No. 9 is the ninth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1909. It is a large-scale late-Romantic orchestral work characterised by expansive structures, contrasts between lyrical slow movements and energetic scherzo passages, and a contemplative mood that reflects its place as Mahler's final completed symphony and a bridge to early 20th-century modernist developments.
