Sinfonie Nr. 9 D-dur

Album by Gustav Mahler & SWR Sinfonieorchester Baden‐Baden und Freiburg & Michael Gielen

Sinfonie Nr. 9 in D major is the ninth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1909 and first performed in 1912. The work exemplifies late-Romantic orchestral writing with expansive movements that juxtapose lyrical introspection, complex chromatic harmony and stark dynamic contrasts, and it occupies a pivotal place near the end of Mahler's output as a reflection on mortality and a bridge to early 20th-century modernist tendencies in orchestral music.
