Symphony no. 1 in D major

Album by Gustav Mahler & Wiener Philharmoniker & Paul Kletzki

Symphony No. 1 in D major is the first symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1888. The work is a large-scale Romantic symphony that blends symphonic development with song-like and folk-influenced themes, features broad orchestration and dramatic contrasts, and marks an early example of Mahler's move towards expansive, programme-influenced symphonic writing at the turn of the 20th century.
First released: 1970
