Mahler
Symphony Number 4 in G major
Mahler's first four symphonies are often referred to as the "Wunderhorn" symphonies because many of their themes originate in earlier songs by
Mahler on texts from Des Knaben Wunderhorn (The Youth's Magic Horn). The fourth symphony is built around a single song, "Das himmlische Leben".
It is prefigured in various ways in the first three movements and sung in its entirety by a solo soprano in the fourth movement.
Early plans in which the Symphony was projected as a six-movement work, but Mahler later decided on a simpler structure for the score.
