Mahler: Symphony No.3

Description

Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra continue their highly acclaimed Mahler cycle with Symphony No.3. At over 90 minutes, it is not only the composer's longest work but an exuberant ode to nature, mankind, the world and indeed, life itself. For this song of praise the composer requires the richest of orchestral forces, a contralto soloist and multiple choirs. Channel Classics's stunning high resolution super-audio release features contralto Gerhild Romberger, the Cantemus Children's Choir and the Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks.
