Description:
Mahler's Symphony No. 1 in D major was composed principally between 1887 and 1888 and first performed in Budapest in 1889. Sometimes known as the Titan, it takes the listener on a remarkable journey from the awakening sounds of nature to a jubilant and triumphant conclusion. Along the way, Mahler incorporates rustic dances, birdsong, distant fanfares and a wonderfully imaginative minor-key transformation of the familiar tune Frère Jacques.
Essential Classics Unlocked:
This arrangement aims to preserve the character and essential spirit of Mahler's great symphony while presenting it in a form that is comparatively brief and approachable at the piano. All four movements are represented, although each has necessarily been abridged and carefully adapted to provide an enjoyable and rewarding introduction to this colourful and exhilarating masterpiece.
