One of Mahler's most popular works, a masterpiece of symphonic writing. The composer brought fresh and formidable thinking to the entire structure of this innovative four-part symphony, shaping each movement into the intensely personal narrative his art had become. Reprinted from the authoritative Universal-Edition, complete with bar-numbered movements for easy reference.
Symphonic Dances, Op. 64, in Full Score by Edvard Grieg, ISBN 0486431533
The 1890s were years of relative peace for the widely traveled Grieg: he had recently taken up permanent residence at Troldhaugen, and the music world had begun to confer distinctions and honors on the beloved 53-year-old Norwegian composer. Out of this fertile period Grieg's second nationalist period was born--a fresh exploration of his country's rich treasury of folk music and the birth of his four evocative Symphonic Dances (on Norwegian Themes), Op. 64. Scored for large orchestra and dipping into a rich palette of instrumental colors, the Dances are consider among Grieg's strongest, most mature pieces for orchestra. Unabridged republication of the first edition by C. F. Peters, Leipzig, 1898.

Fritz Reiner: A Biography by Philip Hart, ISBN 081011125X
This is the first biography of one of the century's most important conductors of opera and symphonic music. Fritz Reiner (1888-1963) led major orchestras in Europe and the Americas, including those of Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, and Chicago; after distinguished opera conducting in Philadelphia and San Francisco, he spent five memorable seasons at the Metropolitan Opera. He was not only a consummate musician but also a major participant in the evolution of concert and opera in America, in the development of characteristically American music, and in the education of musicians: Leonard Bernstein, his most famous pupil, declared, "Reiner is responsible for my own very high standards". His most enduring legacy, his recordings made with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, are more highly regarded than they were in his lifetime - indeed, most of Reiner's recorded repertory was reissued on compact disc much more quickly than that of other conductors of his era. His accomplishments, however, were compromised...
