Symphony no. 5 / Symphony no. 10 – Adagio

Album by Gustav Mahler & Klaus Tennstedt & London Philharmonic Orchestra

Symphony No. 5 / Symphony No. 10 – Adagio is a paired recording of symphonic works by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, with the Fifth Symphony composed in 1901–1902 and the Adagio of the Tenth Symphony composed in 1910. Musically it spans late-Romantic orchestral writing and the composer's late-period introspection, juxtaposing the Fifth's expansive, motivically driven and brass-inflected textures with the Adagio's sparse, harmonically advanced and elegiac sound world that points towards developments in early 20th-century music.
