Based on the Critical Edition- Orchestra material on hire. Par MAHLER GUSTAV. This edition of the first version of 1880 uses the musical text of the Complete Critical Edition. The work was first conducted according to this score on October 7th 1997 in Manchester by Kent Nagano. Previously there had only been performances in which 'Waldmärchen' ('A Forest Tale') was followed the two-movement version of 'Das klagende Lied' ('Song of Lamentation'). Since the first performance the three-movement version has become more and more popular. (Reinhold Kubik)/ Répertoire / Solistes, Chœur Mixte SATB et Orchestre

Urfassung 1880 in 3 Sätzen. Par MAHLER GUSTAV. Das Klagende Lied is based on poems written by the composer and was completed in 1880. It originally consisted of three movements which bore the following titles: Waldmärchen (A Tale from the Woods), Der Spielmann (The Minstrel), and Hochzeitsstück (Wedding Piece). The composer subjected the score to several revisions and eventually arrived at a version in which the first movement was omitted altogether, while the second and third movements lost their titles and were thoroughly reworked. This new version was published in 1899 by Weinberger and premiered under Mahler’s baton in Vienna in 1901. For advanced players./ Répertoire / Solistes, Chœur Mixte SATB et Orchestre
