Gustav Mahler - Symphony No. 5 (1997)

One of the most important composers of the late-Romantic time, and being a bridge between the music of the late 19th century and the start of modernism. What I'm giving you here is a great performance by the Wiener Philharmonic, conducted by Pierre Boulez (not only a great conductor, but one of the nicest composers of the 20th century) from 1997.

This 5th Symphony contains the fourth movement Adagietto, and that movement is probably the most recognizable music Mahler ever made. The 5th Symphony overall is also his most important work and Mahler is still considered as one of the greatest today.
