I don't agree! I saw and heard the Moscow Symphony Orchestra perform his "Leningrad" symphony in Stockholm 1977 with Evgeny Svetlanov! That was mindblowing...will never forget
His greatest symphony is the "LENINGRAD SYMPHONY NR 7 Op. 60"
Okay, this thread is about MAHLER not SCHOSTA!
In the standard repetoire of today! Gustav Mahler's symphony nr 3 is the longest symphony in the world
Mahler's greatest symphonies is the nr 5 (with the famous Adagietto), and the nr 6 The Tragic!
