Product Description

Dating from the composer's prolific period of 1903-4 and following Mahler's marriage to Alma Schindler by just a year, the draft of this remarkable work--subtitled "Tragic" — is represented by 28 current recordings. The symphony incorporates "portraits" of Alma in the first movement and of children playing in a diabolical Scherzo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive, Feb 10 2007

By Rolan S., Duvvury "the GT architect" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Symphony No. 6 in A Minor (Paperback)

This score is one of my favorite Mahler symphonies. Overall it is incredible to see his layering of orchestration. You will be amazed at how much underscoring there is that sometimes it's hard to notice. Dover's publication is extremely accurate for the most part. There are a few discrepancies between the score and most performances, but I feel that is probably because Mahler constantly revised the orchestration of his symphonies. Overall, highly recommended if you want to see the symphonic master at work at a very affordable price.
