Mahler: Symphony No. 9

Album by Gustav Mahler & Chicago Symphony Orchestra & Sir Georg Solti

Symphony No. 9 is the ninth symphony by Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, completed in 1910. A late-Romantic orchestral work that employs expansive forms, dense orchestration and sharp contrasts of mood culminating in a quietly fading finale, it is Mahler's final completed symphony and occupies a pivotal place in his late style.
