Symphonie Nr. 5

Album by Gustav Mahler & Berliner Philharmoniker & Herbert von Karajan

Symphony No. 5 is the fifth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1902. The five-movement work traverses dramatic contrasts, from sombre brass fanfares and intimate chamber-like textures to an extended lyrical slow movement, employing complex rhythms, shifting tonal centres and expansive orchestration that marks a shift in Mahler's writing towards a more concentrated instrumental symphonic language.
