Score and Parts-This treatment has been done for strings alone with an optional part for harp. The original key of F has been retained and the optional harp part is embraced by the celli in definitive sections. This arrangement is playable by advancing ensembles with expanded use of rhythms ranges and keys but technical demands are still carefully considered. Includes viola T.C. parts and optional harp and piano.

Composed in 1901-02, Mahler's 5th Symphony contains the Adagietto movement scored for strings and harp, perhaps the most serene, simple, spiritual and peaceful music of his entire output. The music was likely composed as a love song to his new wife Alma. Ralph Sauer has beautifully arranged the movement for solo Horn with Piano accompaniment. The 8 minute long work is appropriate for advanced performers.
