Symphony No. 5
Album by Gustav Mahler & London Philharmonic Orchestra & Jaap van Zweden
Symphony No. 5 is the fifth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1902. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic orchestral composition characterised by dramatic contrasts, expanded orchestral forces and intricate orchestration, and it marks a shift in Mahler's output toward purely instrumental symphonic writing within his career and the broader development of early 20th-century symphonic practice.
