Hi Romanticist,
Have digged in my dear Mahler archive and guess what!
Here it is! Get ready for some hard headed statements from the Mahler prophet no 1: Leonard Bernstein. Ready?
"In one way or another, Mahler lies at the essential core of all the significant music written after him... whether tonal or non tonal.
Even such diverse composers as Varèse and Dallapiccola, are inconcievable without Mahler!
Schostakovich and Britten are greatest when they're most like Mahler!"
`Leonard Bernstein.
