from Amadeus Press
Price: $15.61

Customer Review:
David Hurwitz's THE MAHLER SYMPHONIES is aptly subtitled "An Owner's Manual." The book is intended for people who already know they like Mahler's music, and want to know more about it.
Have you ever met a birder--one of those unusual people so devoted to the study of birds that they can look up... more info

2.Gustav Mahler: The SymphoniesGustav Mahler: The Symphonies
from Amadeus Press

Customer Review:
By the time I opened this book I had already read more than a dozen biographies of composer Gustav Mahler. What could this one add?
Well, it surprised me. It lives up to its name: GUSTAV MAHLER: THE SYMPHONIES. What it does is give you a thorough explanation of each Mahler symphony. It tells... more info

3.[no image]Mahler
from Thames & Hudson Ltd

Customer Review:
** Mahler (1860-1911) must have lost heart of composing after seeing Freud?
The circumstances surrounding the composition of the Tenth were highly unusual - the revelation that his young wife had had an affair with the architect Walter Gropius

4.[no image]Mahler (Master Musician)
from J M Dent & Sons Ltd

Customer Review:
Two books in one, because it divides sharply into two parts. The first half, running about 110 pages, is a very readable biography. The second half, running about 75 pages, provides analysis of what you'll hear in each of Mahler's compositions. For example, one chapter is devoted to "The Song of the... more info

5.Mahler: A BiographyMahler: A Biography
from Overlook Hardcover

Customer Review:

The Author describes, at appreciable length, why Gustav Mahler was widely misunderstood both as man and musician. More than 50 years after his death his works were left apart until, restored to life prompted by interest and performance, Mahler took his deserved place in the repertoires.more info

from Oxford University Press, USA

Customer Review:
.
This is not biography in its best form.

De La Grange has done us a service by compiling a very detailed but largely chronological history of the events of Mahler's life. You'll find a largely blow-by-blow description of his life: compositional struggles; arguments with cast members,... more info

from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $107.37

Customer Review:
For any devotee of Mahler's music, De La Grange's biography of the composer is, without doubt, required reading; the sheer mass of details in these volumes guarantees that. Yet despite this truly monumental effort, I think De La Grange has missed something utterly essential about Mahler's art. It is... more info
