Symphony no. 2 "Resurrection"

Album by Gustav Mahler & London Symphony Orchestra & Gilbert Kaplan

Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection" is the second symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1894 and first performed in 1895. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic symphony that combines full orchestra, chorus and vocal soloists to traverse themes of death and resurrection through expansive structures, dramatic contrasts and dense, colouristic orchestration, and it represents a major step in Mahler's evolution towards his later symphonic idiom.
