Symphony no. 7

Album by Gustav Mahler & Klaus Simon & Royal Scottish National Orchestra & Thomas Søndergård

Symphony No. 7 is the seventh symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1905. It is a large-scale late-Romantic orchestral work that contrasts nocturnal and exuberant textures, employs expanded and sometimes unconventional orchestral forces, and demonstrates Mahler's experimentation with form, tonality and orchestral colour, marking a transitional point in his late-period output.
