Product Information
In an age of artistic accomplishment, Gustav Mahler stood out as one of the supremely gifted musicians of his generation. As a composer, he won acclaim for his startling originality. As a conductor, his relentless pursuit of perfection was sometimes seen as tyrannical by the singers and musicians who came under his baton. And always, even with his greatest triumphs, he provoked controversy among the critics. Now Henry-Louis de La Grange, Mahler's celebrated biographer, offers new insight into Mahler's life and work with his latest look at the career of this musical genius. In Mahler in Vienna , La Grange follows the great musician to the intellectual and artistic capital of turn-of-the-century Europe. From Mahler's spectacular debut as director of the Vienna Court Opera to his triumphant tour of the continent, we see him at the height of his powers. La Grange vividly portrays the marvelous spectacle, including the extraordinary range of artists who worked with Mahler--the composers Dvorak, Gustave Charpentier, Richard Strauss, Zemlinsky, and Schoenberg; the painters, architects, and decorators of the Secession (led by Klimt); and the writers Hauptmann, Dehmel, Hofmannsthal, and Schnitzler. In Vienna, the conductor worked a revolution in standards of performance and (along with Secession painter Alfred Roller) scenic illustration. It was also during this period that he wrote some of his best-loved symphonies--including his Fourth and Fifth--and his three orchestral song-cycles and collections, the Wunderhorn-, Ruckert-, and Kindertotenlieder. For each of these works La Grange provides full notes and analytic descriptions. And the author does not neglect Mahler's temptestuous personal life, for during these years he met Alma Schindler--"the most beautiful woman in Vienna." La Grange deftly captures the story of their engagement and marriage in 1902. Mahler remains one of the greatest figures in the history f music, a man whose work provokes strong reactions today as in his own time. This account is just one part of the definitive four-volume biography Gustav Mahler , the result of a thirty-year research project; the author has personally translated it from his original French into English. Scrupulously researched and insightfully written, this volume is a brilliant account of a critical epoch in Mahler's life.

Reviews
'highly readable. In its painstaking thoroughness and scope, it is virtually unique in musical biography and, by any standards, a remarkable achievement'Peter McCallum, The Sydney Morning Herald, '... the second volume is as good as, probably better than, volume one. Amust-have for musis libraries and all but hte most superficial Mahler-itcs.'Kirkus Reviews, 'Now Mr de La Grange has finally brought out a revised translation of "Vienna: The Years of Challenge (1987-1904)" ... the first of two volumes covering Mahler's 10 years as director of the Vienna Court Opera. it was worth the wait. "Vienna: The Years of Challenge" is not just a biography butalso a masterly work of cultural history, a portrait of musical Vienna unprecedented in its richness and comprehension. Though Mr de La Grange has much to say about Mahler's compositions, his book is primarily a chronicle of the life and times of a great orchestral conductor and operatic director.'The Wall Street Journal, 'The book is a treasure-trove ... It is for the kaleidoscopically detailed way in which de La Grange asssembles a picture of the world in which Mahler worked, including his critics as well as the people he chose to surround himself with, that this biography deserves to be celebrated. It is ina class of its own. At L30, these 892 pages represent the musical bargain of the decade.'BBC Music Magazine, 'The clarity with which Mr de La Grange sketches this conflict is hisoutstanding achievement as a biographer. "Vienna: The Years of Challenge" washesaway once and for all the traditional caricature of Mahler as self-pityingposeur by bringing into sharp focus the corrosive cultrual context within whichhe waged daily battle against the forces of philistinism. Mr de La Grange is sogood at putting Mahler in context, in fact, that Mahler's own personalityoccasionally gets lost in the shuffle - not because the crucial task of literaryportaiture has been skimped, but simply because his book contains so much elseof interest.'The Wall Street Journal, 'Henry-Louis de La Grange's four-volume biography, comparable only to Ernest Newman's life of Wagner, is commensurate in scale with the waxing of Mahler's reputation ... La Grange's vast canvas allows the reader to enter fully into Mahler's world ... The OUP is to be congratulated forembarking on this project'Daniel Johnson, The Times, 'The greatest biographies stem from the grandest obsessions ...Henry-Louis de La Grange's Gustav Mahler - Vienna: The Years of Challenge(1897-1904) is the fruit of half a century's fascination with the revolutionaryAustrian ... Through 700 pages of dense but engaging narrative, not a concert,not a row, not a review, not a note is missed. the writing is of an almostscientific exactitude, though the author's passion for his subject rarely wanes... IRThe Years of Challenge continues on of the most remarkable biographicalventures in the late 20th century.'The Independent, 'the second volume is as good as, probably better than, volume one. Amust-have for music libraries and all but the most superficial Mahler-itcs.'Kirkus Reviews, 'Now Mr de La Grange has finally brought out a revised translation of"Vienna: The Years of Challenge (1987-1904)" ... the first of two volumescovering Mahler's 10 years as director of the Vienna Court Opera. it was worththe wait. "Vienna: The Years of Challenge" is not just a biography but also amasterly work of cultural history, a portrait of musical Vienna unprecedented inits richness and comprehension. Though Mr de La Grange has much to say aboutMahler's compositions, his book is primarily a chronicle of the life and timesof a great orchestral conductor and operatic director.'The Wall Street Journal, 'La Grange is a superb guide, his attention to detail awesome. Thescholar can only marvel at the meticulous decumentation and mustering of hsivast range of source material (some housed in themonumental archive assembled byhim at the Bibliotheque Musicale Gustav Mahler in Paris), but the generalreader, too, will find many gems ... The completion of this great and originalwork will be eagerly awaited.'Daily Telegraph, 'this version definitively supersedes its predecessors. ... The added material is thus frequently of vital importance and interest ... The book is a treasure-trove. ... It is for the kaleidoscopically detailed way in which de La Grange assembles a picture of the world in which Mahler worked,including his critics as well as the people he chose to surround himself with, that this biography deserves to be celebrated. It is in a class of its own. At L30, these 892 pages represent the musical bargain of the decade.'BBC Music Magazine, 'La Grange's book is one of the greatest works of biography of modern times ... It is an electrifying read ... to read L Grange's majestic book is to learn to understand the meaning of our mentally-deranged century, and even to hear in the wonderful music what the antidote to all our troublesmight be. I have not read anything remotely as gripping in years'Peter Mullen, Yorkshire Evening Press, 'Arnold Schoenberg once claimed that everything about a great man like Gustav Mahler was of interest, even the way he tied his necktie. He would have loved the monumental Mahler biography by Henry-Louis de La Grange ... Mr de La Grange has spent much of his life digging out details aboutMahler, right down to the contents of the country huts where he wrote his gigantic symphonies and the recipe for his favourite pudding, apricot dumplings. The result is an indispensable, ... highly readable account of the composer's life and times ... Even readers not stricken with Mahleria willfind much to fascinate in the author's sweeping portrait of the crumbling Habsburg empire ... Mr de La Grange is just as good at painting the American background, too ... Mr de La Grange lays out far more evidence than anyone else.'The Economist, '"Vienna: The Years of Challenge" is a work of the first importance, onethat nobody seriously interested in mahler can possibly afford to skip. Indeed,I would venture to say that, when complete, the revised version of "GustavMahler" will stand as one of the finest multivolume biographies of a composerever written'The Wall Street Journal, 'Henry-Louis de La Grange's four-volume biography, comparable only toErnest Newman's life of Wagner, is commensurate in scale with the waxing ofMahler's reputation. ... La Grange's vast canvas allows the reader to enterfully into Mahler's world. ... The OUP is to be congratulated for embarking onthis project.'The Times, 'Much has been written in recent years about Mahler - the man, themaestro, the music and, yes, the myth. No one has written more about Mahler andthe Mahler phenomenon than Henry-Louis de la Grange. And no one has writtenbetter ... La Grange thrives on context, defining his protagonist amid adetailed evocation of a specific time and place. Far more than a musicologicalprotrait, his study is written with pervasive clarity, occasionally even withvigor. The tone suggests academic restraint, but, thank goodness, passion isnever totally suppressed. The dramatis personae are colorful.'Jerusalem Post Magazine
