Recordings

Excerpts from live performances, each marked with the movement and the place in the score.

1. Mahler: Symphony No. 5

   Live

   Tianyu Wang, principal trumpet

   First movement, the opening

   The trumpet alone opens the symphony with the funeral march’s fanfare, before the whole orchestra answers.

   First movement, one bar before rehearsal 13 to one bar before 14

   First movement, the last bars

   The fanfare is heard one last time, quietly, before the movement ends on a single pizzicato.

   Third movement (Scherzo), rehearsal 13

   A short trumpet passage from the Scherzo, the symphony’s longest movement, built on the Ländler and the waltz.

More recordings are coming.
