Description:

This five-movement version includes the "Flower Chapter" that was included in the original composition. At the time of its initial release, this was talked about as the first Mahler symphony No. 1 with a period approach. The interesting passage of phrases between the violins and winds on both wings and the wide range of dynamics are recorded with high resolution, allowing the listener to enjoy this work in a fresh way, even though it should be familiar to them. The "Flower Chapter" is recorded in the original position of the second movement, not as a separate appendix. Includes applause after the performance. Naxos Japan
