Description
Gustav Mahler:Symphony No. 9 in D Major
Artists
London Symphony Orchestra (Orchestra)Valéry Gergiev (Conductor)
The Seventh is often regarded as Mahler’s ‘Cinderella’ symphony and, after the tragic theme of the Sixth, proves far more enigmatic. The funereal march of the opening movement gives way to the serene Nachtmusik (night music) movements, and a ghostly scherzo before culminating in a feverishly joyful finale. |
