MAHLER Symphony No. 3

More Information:

“A symphony,” said Mahler, “must be like the world—it must contain everything.” And this one seems to. According to Mahler’s own private summary, it starts in the earth, as summer awakens life. Moving step by step, it ascends through plant and animal life, through night and morning, and then ends with God.
