Mahler: Song into Symphony

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Mahler's second, third and fourth symphonies reflect the naive world of 'The Youth's Magic Horn', a collection of folk-poetry that appeared during the early 19th century. This programme juxtaposes two of his early songs with their later elaboration in the Wunderhorn symphonies.
