    Thank you CD. That was beautiful not to mention uplifting. I have never taken Mahlers music seriously until now.

    Y'all are very welcome

    I sang that piece with a chamber choir when I lived in Europe back in the '80s and have loved it ever since. It certainly got me firmly into the "Mahler Camp".

    Yes, that's a beautiful transcription.

    If you're interested, here's a beautiful disc with a.o. this particular piece, among other gems:
