The subject of this book is the semantics of symphonic music from
Beethoven to Mahler. Of fundamental importance is the realization
that this music is imbued with non-musical, literary, philosophical
and religious ideas. It is also clear that not only Beethoven,
Schubert and Bruckner were crucial role models for Mahler, but also
the musical dramatist Wagner and the programmatic symphony
composers Berlioz and Liszt. At the same time a semantic musical
analysis of their works reveals for the first time the actual
inherent (poetic) quintessence of numerous orchestral works of the
19th Century.
