Mahler said that a Symphony is like the world: it must contain everything. And this statement finds a perfect example in his Fifth Symphony, a piece of an immense beauty in which coexist the passion of love with the tragedy of death, the rationalism with a schizophrenic imagination, the whisper with a triumphing voice.
