GUSTAV MAHLER (1860-1911)
Lieder und Gesänge aus der Jugendzeit (14 frühe Lieder)
for voice and orchestra

Colin and David Matthews, whose relationship with the music of Mahler is well-known, have collaborated on the orchestration of these songs. Their initial work dates back to 1964 and was meticulously refined right through to 2009. Josef Weinberger is proud to announce the release the final performing version of these songs for the first time.
