Dusseldorfer Symphoniker Fischer - Symphony 2 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Adam Fischer writes of Mahler's 8th Symphonie InchMahler's Eighth is a special challenge for all participants in rehearsals, in performance, and, of course, when making a recording. The challenge lies in freeing the music from all of the technical and logistical problems that come with it. Whenever new possibilities emerged in music history (such as new musical instruments), composers tended to introduce the novelty quite frequently in the first phase to show it's potential. A good example was the Mannheim School in the 1700s. The crescendo had just been invented musicians no longer had to play dynamics in Inchterraced levels.Inch Mannheim pieces from that period are thus brimming with crescendos musicians reveled in the new possibilities. Mahler, later on, wanted to explore the possibilities of an orchestra of unprecedented size, particularly in the Eighth. The effects made possible by such an enlargement should not become an end in themselves. That is the special challenge we have faced. If on this recording we have over 500 people singing and playing together, that is only a means, not an end...Inch

The series of the complete Mahler Symphonies with the Düsseldorf Symphonic under the baton of Ádám Fischer continues here with the of the Symphony No. 9. Over the last two years Ádám Fischer's Mahler recordings grew to a most successful recording project, winning the BBC Music Magazine Award, and the OPUS KLASSIK Trophy in Germany. Adam Fischer InchMahler wrote his Ninth symphony in 1909, and it is about death. To be more precise it is about dying. And I know of no other language apart from German in which the words 'death' (Tod) and 'dying' have entirely different etymologies.Inch
