Mahler’s “5th” & Mendelssohn’s “Violin Concerto” on the “Evening Concert”
Mahler's "5th" was written during his"off" vacation summer months, years 1901 and 1902; it's "Adagietto" movement has become quite famous (for good reason!).

A symphony must be like the world. It must contain everything.*
"A symphony must be like the world. It must contain everything." ( - Mahler)*. And that 'everything' in this symphony includes tenor horn, cowbells, mandolin, and guitar.
It's a tour-de-force symphony in Beethoven's favorite key, C Minor, the "Resurrection" by Mahler...in a perfomance that crackles with energy.
On "Carnegie Hall Live!" The concert was recorded April 8, 2017.
