Mahler - His Life, Work and World

Attitudes, beliefs, conflicts, loves and losses are presented in vivid detail. The editors, Kurt and Herta Blaukopf, have included many documents that were previously inaccessible, and have supplemented the contemporary evidence with background information that helps to set the scene. The result is a highly readable and informative description of Mahler as he saw himself and as he was seen by his contemporaries in the course of his rich and varied life.
