Symphonie no. 4

Album by Gustav Mahler & Bamberger Symphoniker & Jonathan Nott & Mojca Erdmann

Symphony No. 4 in G major is the fourth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1901. Scored for relatively lighter orchestral forces than some of his larger works, it combines late-Romantic harmony and vivid orchestral colour with a clear, often playful demeanour and concludes with a soprano movement that sets a child's vision of heaven, reflecting Mahler's interest in folk-like simplicity and a move toward more condensed formal designs in this phase of his career.
