Symphony No. 3

Album by Gustav Mahler & Jessye Norman & Wiener Philharmoniker & Claudio Abbado

Symphony No. 3 is the third symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1896. The expansive work employs very large orchestration, including chorus and solo voice, and unfolds across six movements that juxtapose orchestral climaxes, lyrical passages and nature-inspired motifs, marking a pivotal point in Mahler's move towards grander scale and programme-oriented symphonic writing.
