Walter van Nus

In Mahler XI the protagonist becomes aware of the source of music itself ; he stands right in it and sees what he hears : imagination and inspiration in a joyful dance of scores and colors above a moutainlike landscape ; however staves , mountains and clothes metamorphose into geometrical design .
What is said about Mahler X also applies to all Mahlers of the socalled Mahlerseries of 1986-1987.
