Mahler i just love his huge symphonies, his own personal style which is unique, a form of expression only hinted at by others, but unmistakably his own. He combines lots of complexity with lots of lyricism...... i don't know what else to say, there's nothing in the world better than a good Mahler symphony :)

that's one sweet piece, Nikolas! i could see your influences pretty clearly, obviously including Bartok and Penderecki, maybe even a little Schnittke..... i have to say, my favorite part of the whole piece was probably from the beginning of the cluster buildup until the end. I like how you notated it, too!
