 In 1878, Mahler graduated from the Vienna Conservatory. Unfortunately, few of his student compositions have survived, so it's uncertain what he would have sounded like at the time.[([[https://archive.nytimes.com/www.nytimes.com/books/first/c/carr-mahler.html?scp=8&sq=Das%2520Kunst&st=cse|NYTimes]])]
+===== Prague =====
+Following his employment at the Leipzig Opera, Mahler relocated to Prague in 1885 to assume a position at the Neues Deutsches Theater (New German Theater).[([[https://courses.lumenlearning.com/musicapp_historical/chapter/mahler/|Lumen Learning]])]
+===== Vienna Court Opera =====
+In 1897, Mahler was appointed director of the Vienna Court Opera, a position he would maintain for the next ten years. It was a trying moment for Mahler, who had to show his German cultural credentials on several occasions to placate his employers. He accomplished this by conducting some thunderous Wagner concerts.[([[https://www.europeana.eu/pl/blog/gustav-mahler-and-the-vienna-court-opera|Europeana]])]
+===== New York =====
+At the turn of the century, Mahler moved to the United States to become the director of New York's Metropolitan Opera and the New York Philharmonic.[([[https://www.nytimes.com/2011/05/18/opinion/18Davis.html|NYTimes]])]
+===== Carnegie Hall =====
+Mahler gave his final concert at New York's Carnegie Hall on February 21, 1911. He became extremely ill as a result of the incident and was confined to his bed. He returned to Vienna, where he died on May 18, 1911.[([[https://www.carnegiehall.org/Explore/Articles/2021/05/20/Mahler-in-New-York-and-at-Carnegie-Hall|Carnegie Hall]])]
+===== Leonard Bernstein =====
+Following the devastation of World War I, some judged Mahler's emotionally charged soundscapes to be out of sync with the broader tone of the moment. Leonard Bernstein, a huge devotee, would frequently claim that he rekindled his passion in the composer beginning in 1960.[([[https://www.classicfm.com/composers/mahler/pictures/mahlers-150th-birthday/8/|Classic FM]])]
+===== Eugene Ormandy =====
+After Mahler's death, another ardent advocate of his work was the Hungarian/American conductor Eugene Ormandy. In this photograph, he conducts Mahler's 10th Symphony with the London Symphony Orchestra in 1966.[([[https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/1998/12/mahlers-unfinished-symphony/377362/|The Atlantic]])]

+===== Simon Rattle =====
+On his first engagement with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, Sir Simon Rattle takes a bow after completing Mahler's 5th Symphony. From his days with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra onwards, his renditions of Mahler symphonies have become legendary.[([[https://bachtrack.com/review-mahler-rattle-berlin-philharmonic-london-february-2015|Bach Track]])]
+===== Seiji Ozawa =====
+In 2006, Seiji Ozawa, director of the Vienna State Opera Hall, conducts Mahler's Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection." The Resurrection is one of Mahler's most difficult and rewarding works, a massive meditation on the afterlife with some genuinely terrible sounds.[([[https://www.classicfm.com/composers/mahler/pictures/mahlers-150th-birthday/12/|Classic FM]])]
