Das Lied von der Erde



Das Lied von der Erde ("The Song of the Earth") is a large-scale work for two vocal soloists and orchestra by the Austrian composer Gustav Mahler. Laid out in six separate movements, each of them an independent song, the work is described on the title-page as Eine Symphonie für eine Tenor- und eine Alt- (oder Bariton-) Stimme und Orchester (nach Hans Bethges "Die chinesische Flöte") ('A Symphony for One Tenor and One Alto (or Baritone) Voice and Orchestra (After Hans Bethge's 'The Chinese Flute')').
