DG is continuing its prestigious series of Mahler symphonies with Claudio Abbado - who makes 'music turn into light', as the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (June 2004) puts it.

Mahler's Sixth is the symphony most praised by Mahlerians and a test for the listener's hi-fi! Sometimes titled the 'Tragic', it opens with a funeral march followed by music of energetic lyricism which Mahler described as a representation of his young wife.

The quick changes from extremely lyrical to deeply dramatic and violent music are a special feature of this symphony, as well as the unusual instrumentation and effects Mahler employed, including offstage cowbells, very deep bells, and in the last movement devastating 'hammer blows' intended to sound like an axe striking into wood.

Claudio Abbado's return to the Berliner Philharmoniker was not only triumphant but also hailed as the 'return of the former King' by the Berliner Zeitung (June 2004).

Composers: Mahler.
Conductors: Claudio Abbado.
Orchestras: Berliner Philharmoniker.
