Gustav Mahler's Fourth Symphony is the last of the composer's three Wunderhorn symphonies (the others being his Second and Third Symphonies). [1] These works incorporated themes originating in Mahler's Des Knaben Wunderhorn (The Boy's Magic Horn), [2] [3] a song cycle setting poems from the folk poetry collection of the same name. [4]
The Symphony No. 9 by Gustav Mahler was written between 1908 and 1909, and was the last symphony that he completed. A typical performance takes about 75 to 90 minutes. A survey of conductors voted Mahler's Symphony No. 9 the fourth greatest symphony of all time in a ballot conducted by BBC Music Magazine in 2016. [1]
