Romantic. Composed in 1901-02, Mahler's 5th Symphony contains the Adagietto movement scored for strings and harp, perhaps the most serene, simple, spiritual and peaceful music of his entire output. The music was likely composed as a love song to his new wife Alma. Ralph Sauer has arranged the movement for solo horn with piano accompaniment. The 8 minute long work is appropriate for advanced performers. -the publisher
