Mahler's Fourth Symphony (Studies in Musical Genesis and Structure)
by James L. Zychowicz
"In this book, James Zychowicz explores Mahler's compositional process for the Fourth, from the early movement plans to preliminary sketches, short score, draft score, and fair copy. At each stage of the process, Mahler added details, decided on textures, and explored tonalities until he arrived at the finished score.".
"This is the first comprehensive study of Mahler's compositional method concerning a pivotal work in his oeuvre. The Fourth Symphony looks back toward the earlier Wunderhorn period and simultaneously forward to the less programmatic style of his middle symphonies."--BOOK JACKET.

First Sentence
"Gustar Mahler's Fourth Symphony (1899-1900) is one of the composer's most accessible compositions, and while it is difficult to find a single work that unequivocally embodies his style, this Symphony contains elements that may be seen to emerge throughout his oeuvre."
