Mahler’s 6th Symphony was premiered in Vienna in 1906 by the composer himself (who only conducted it twice again), and the nickname ‘The Tragic Symphony’ was only ever used at this time - it never made it into any version of the score. Simone Young has proved herself a worthy exponent of his music and the second volume with the Hamburg Philharmonic will surely attract critical acclaim for her and her forces.
