Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 1, set for release on October 31, 2025, under the Alpha Classics label, is a monumental work in the classical orchestra genre. Spanning 56 minutes, this symphony is a testament to Mahler's innovative compositional style and his ability to evoke a wide range of emotions through music. The symphony is divided into four movements, each with its own distinct character and tempo, offering a rich and varied listening experience. From the slow, dragging pace of the first movement to the stormy and impetuous final movement, Mahler's Symphony No. 1 is a journey through a landscape of sound that is both powerful and deeply moving. This album is a must-listen for anyone interested in classical music and the works of Gustav Mahler.
This LP was released in 1963.
