First published in English in 1980, this important early memoir of
Gustav Mahler is by Natalie Bauer-Lechner (1858-1921), a viola
player and close and devoted friend of Mahler until his marriage to
Alma Schindler in 1902. She visited him in Hamburg and frequented
his circle in Vienna, also accompanying him and his family on a
number of the summer vacations during which the Second, Third and
Fourth Symphonies came into being, together with many of the
Wunderhorn songs. Compiled from Bauer-Lechner's private journal,
these Recollections are a vital, invaluable record of Mahler's
personal, professional and creative life during the last decade of
the nineteenth century. A large part of the book recounts, at first
hand, conversations with Mahler concerning his works and his ideas
about performance (both in the opera-house and on the concert
platform.)
