Sylvain Dupuis invited the composer of this work to conduct it at one of his Nouveaux Concerts in Liége. The song Urlicht was added as an introduction to the final movement, and borrowing from a German translation of an Adam Mickiewicz poem, the opening movement existed independently for some time as Todtenfeier or "Funeral Ceremony." The final mezzo-soprano solo is "O glaube, mein Herz, o glaube," and it utilizes a song about Saint Anthony of Padua preaching to fishes in the third scherzo movement. Inspired by the death of Hans von Bulow and an ode by Klopstock, FTP, name this Gustav Mahler symphony which immediately follows the Titan, nicknamed for the theme of being raised from the dead.
