Mahler Symphony No. 9
Frequently mentioned in the top ten greatest symphonies every written, Mahler’s Ninth is the expression of Mahler’s love for the earth, nature, and enjoying all it offers before death comes. Though not his last work, it is described as a peaceful farewell as Mahler contends with his own mortality during its writing.
