Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection" is a symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1894 and first performed in 1895. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic piece that uses full orchestra, chorus and vocal soloists to move from funeral music to a choral finale focused on resurrection, and it follows Mahler's development in combining symphonic and vocal forces.
