Symphony no. 2 in C minor “Resurrection”
Album by Gustav Mahler & Hanna Lisowska & Jadwiga Rappé & Narodowa Orkiestra Symfoniczna Polskiego Radia w Katowicach & Antoni Wit
Symphony No. 2 in C minor, "Resurrection", is the second symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1894 with final revisions in 1895 and first performed in 1895. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic symphony employing an expanded orchestra, vocal soloists and chorus to explore themes of death and resurrection, and it marks a significant stage in Mahler's development toward integrating symphonic and vocal forces in his mature style.
