The Symphony No. 5 by Gustav Mahler was composed in 1901 and 1902, mostly during the summer months at Mahler's cottage at Maiernigg. Among its most distinctive features are the funereal trumpet solo that opens the work and the frequently performed Adagietto.
This is my favorite part of this symphony which to me is so typical for Mahler, the fight between the good and the bad forces, at the end the good wins and all live in peace and unity...it's such a wonderful symphony and this Adagietto is the peace after the battle...the good won and all instruments are so serene and play in unison.
@BytomGirl I venture to add that the theme here is the triumph of beauty over disease and death as exemplified in the motion picture Death in Venice, where this music theme was used.
@Nonie46 I don;t knoow the movie but listening to few Maler's symphinys I can tell thtat this is general theme.. the victory of good, be it beauty, freedom etc. Have you listen to the entire sympjony? It's the fight between two forces who finally come together in peace and that is the true victory.
We have to be very careful, brothers and sisters. We deal with heaven, so it's our duty to fulfil God's will. This music is God, it's not created by Him, but it is Him. What is His Love, that he allows us to hear Him! This music blesses every creature with immortality, happiness and immortal happiness.
oh my gosh! i'd fallen in love with symphony is so far one of my favorites, Iam breathless and in some clound in canada. amazing MAHLER YOU ARE A GENIOUS ROMANTIC THANKS.
Gustav Mahlers fifth symphoni and its adagietto is the most beutiful piece music I've ever heard. This is what I call heaven. I'ts strange, that we can find that here in earth. Stefan

Fantastic music made by an inspired man.
No gods, goddesses, fairies, sprites or devils were hurt during the making of this piece.
All allusions to supernatural figments of a primitive mind are completely coincidental and should not detract from your enjoyment of this art.
