Mahler 7                                 I am happy that the Dutch tv company vpro made a documentary of our recording of this bully symphony. This movie is                                 available on the cyberspace. [YouTube/Mahler seven/Iván Fischer] It documents my efforts in proving that the last movement of                                 Mahler'southward 7th symphony – despite some doubts of Mahler experts – is a masterpiece. This work is often seen equally enig­matic,                                 fragmented, less accessible than the other, honey Mahler Symphonies. May this recording contribute to a revalidation!                                      Mahler returns hither to a perfect balance. He ended the sixth Symphony in a tragic minor central. Hither he offers us the total                                 journeying from darkness to light. And what a journeying it is! Delight notation the nearly magnificant scherzo framed between the two                                 unique night music episodes! I beloved this symphony.                                                                                                                                                 Iván Fischer                                  From darkness into light                                  Thou     ustav Mahler'due south 7th Symphony was commencement performed in 1908 in Prague, when the                                       composer conducted the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra. This stupendous work, built up                                 symmetrically in five movements, lasts some 80 minutes and is considered, despite its 'dark                                 music' and funeral march, to be an 'optimistic' sequel to Mahler's pessimistic 6th. Members of                                 the orchestra, audience and critics took some getting used to the modernistic sounds of this music, on                                 the border betwixt late romanticism and early atonality. Mahler said of the symphony: 'It is my                                 best piece of work and it has a cheerful character'. In writing it the composer threw no few conventions                                 overboard. With an enormous orchestra, including novel instruments such as the tenor horn,                                 mandolin, guitar, gong, tambourine and cow bells, Mahler presents his 'song of the dark' to the                                 listener, though this title was not of his own making.                                      The creative process of the Seventh Symphony went through various stages and fifty-fifty came                                 to a standstill when Mahler suffered a composer's block – all quite dissimilar his other symphonies.                                 Limerick is not something that can easily be planned or forced; equally he said himself: 'in this                                 fine art, as in normal life, I am dependent on thoughts and ideas. If I had to etch, I would not                                 produce a single annotation'. In the summer of 1904, before finishing his Sixth Symphony, he completed                                 the two 'night music' movements for the Seventh. He planned to finish the other movements Recording session               during the post-obit summer. For this purpose Mahler fabricated a special trip from Vienna to the (Photo: Channel Classics)       family unit'south summer home on the Wörthersee. But precisely because of his strong inner coercion                              6                                                                vii

The first nighttime music is imbued with the mood of                                                                                                        Mahler's Wunderhorn songs, with the audio of moo-cow bells in the distance – which according to the Premiere in Prague                                                                                     composer are symbolic of 'far-from-the-world loneliness'.

Cette faszinierenden Nachtmusiken, die durch ein merkwürdiges und makaberes Scherzo getrennt                     œuvre est souvent considérée comme énigmatique, fragmentée, moins accessible que les autres symphonies de Mahler tant sind, eher ein Totentanz in Class eines Walzers.

Que cet enregistrement contribue à sa réhabilitation ! von Mahlers Wunderhornliedern, mit fernem Kuhglockenklang, laut Mahler das Symbol                               Mahler revient là à un équilibre parfait. Il termine sa sixième symphonie dans une tonalité mineure tragique. Dans la „weltfernster Einsamkeit" und „verhallendes Erdengeräusch im Angesicht der Ewigkeit, als                   septième, il nous offre le voyage entier, de l'obscurité à la lumière.

Horn erinnert an die „Scène aux champs" aus der Symphonie fantastique von Hector Berlioz, die                                                                                                                           Iván Fischer Mahler gerne dirigierte.      Die zweite Nachtmusik assoziierte Mahler, so seine Frau Alma, mit einer Lieblichkeit wie              De l'obscurité à la lumière in den Gedichten von Eichendorff, dem Dichter der romantischen deutschen Landschaft: friedliche Wiesen, rauschende Bäume und murmelnde Bäche.
