成人快手

We continue this week of programmes from the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra with a concert recorded last October in Munich, under the baton of Daniel Harding.

Gustav Mahler completed his Second Symphony in 1894 after six years of work on it. It was his first major work that established his lifelong view of the beauty of afterlife and resurrection. Mahler believed that a symphony should be 鈥渓ike the world 鈥� it should contain everything鈥�, and there aren鈥檛 many critics who question his success in that quest in this work. The 鈥淩esurrection鈥� was voted the fifth-greatest symphony of all time in a survey of conductors carried out by the 成人快手 Music Magazine.
