A magnificent symphonic poem that examines the boundary between life and death
A fusion of oriental poetry and the profound sounds of late Romanticism, this piece sings of the impermanence of life.
This magnificent recording offers a dignified interpretation of Gustav Mahler's masterpiece. The tenor and alto soloists in "Das Lied von der Erde" pose existential questions against a magnificent orchestral backdrop.
