Mahler Symphony No. 1 (Part 1)
Sticky Notes: The Classical Music Podcast - En podkast av Joshua Weilerstein - Torsdager
This week on Sticky Notes, we dive headlong into one of the boldest statements ever made by a young composer with Gustav Mahler's massive first symphony. It's so massive that I had to split the show into two parts! This week, we talk a lot about Mahler's early life and the early genesis of this masterpiece. Then we take a detailed look at the first two movements of the symphony and its depictions of nature, silence, creation, joy, fear, and celebration. Thanks so much for listening!
