Symphonie Nr. 6

Symphony No. 6 is the sixth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1904. The work is a large-scale late-Romantic symphony characterised by stark dramatic contrasts, dense orchestration with prominent brass and percussion, and movements that alternate lyrical slow passages with militaristic and tragic gestures, marking a pivotal point in Mahler's mature output for its structural boldness within the early 20th-century symphonic repertoire.
