Legendary recording made by the Berliner Philharmoniker under Hebert von Karajan

One of the many legendary recordings made by the Berliner Philharmoniker under Hebert von Karajan, this reading of Mahler's Fifth Symphony has been acclaimed as "one of the most beautiful and intense versions" of the work on disc (Penguin Guide). Karajan inspires virtuosic playing from the orchestra and conjures a particularly ravishing interpretation of the famous Adagietto.

 

I. Trauermarsch (In gemessenem Schritt. Streng. Wie ein Kondukt - Plötzlich schneller. Leidenschaftlich. Wild - Tempo I)

II. Stürmisch bewegt. Mit größter Vehemenz - Bedeutend langsamer - Tempo I subito

III. Scherzo (Kräftig, nicht zu schnell)

IV. Adagietto. Sehr langsam

V. Rondo-Finale (Allegro)
