Symphony no. 3

Album by Gustav Mahler & Tonhalle‐Orchester Zürich & David Zinman & Birgit Remmert & Schweizer Kammerchor & Zürcher Sängerknaben

Symphony No. 3 is the third symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1896. The expansive, late-Romantic work uses vast orchestral forces including chorus and solo voice to move from earthbound, naturalistic motifs to a transcendent finale, and it occupies a pivotal place in Mahler's development toward large-scale, programme-driven symphonic writing.
