Mahler: Symphony No. 5 on SACD

Reference Recordings presents our second collaboration with the Grand Teton Festival Orchestra, in a spectacular live recording of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 5. This richly emotional work was written in 1901 and 1902 while Mahler was recovering from a near-fatal illness. The fourth movement is probably Mahler's most famous composition and is the most frequently performed of his works. The premiere performance was October 18, 1904 in Cologne, Germany. This symphony is the composition that inspired producer Victor Muenzer's career in music! About this new album Mr. Muenzer writes: "Once again, we bring you the dream team of the beautiful acoustics of Walk Festival Hall, the unparalleled musicians of the Grand Teton Music Festival Orchestra, and the unrivaled present-day Mahlerian conductor, Sir Donald Runnicles."
