Martinů’s Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra
is a rhythmic tour de force, at times breezily
energetic, relentless, and jazzy. Exuberance,
driving rhythms, and tunefulness are some of
the most noticeable characteristics of his music.
Gustav Mahler’s first symphony threw down
the gauntlet for a new order for the symphony
genre. Representing the world of nature, a world
of human satire, of personal emotional trauma
turned into universal experience, this work sent
shock waves into the world of music.
