Fresh from the loss of his oldest daughter Maria Mahler, and knowing he had a serious heart condition, Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) crafted Das Lied von der Erde (The Song of the Earth) in the years 1908 and 1909. The first performance took place on November 20, 1911 at the Tonhalle in Munich, conducted by Bruno Walter. It encompasses six settings of old Chinese poems, four of them by the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai, loosely translated into German by Hans Bethge. Conscious of his own mortality, Mahler filled his orchestral song cycle with themes of resignation, fading beauty, and autumn loneliness. The last song, roughly the same length as the previous five movements combined, serves as a sprawling, yet deeply personal farewell to both love and life.

In the Mississippi River valley, portions of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Illinois lie in a “driftless” region bypassed by ancient glaciers. The resulting scenic beauty is characterized by magnificent rocky bluffs, steep ravines, and forested hills. Secret Valley is a musical journey exploring a winding road through the misty bluffs, or an unexpected forested valley, a grand view of the mighty river, or a surprising burst of foliage on a crisp Autumn day. The piece uses imaginative textures and striking effects to help your imagination run wild. Dur: ca. 5:15.
