This orchestral reduction of Mahler's Symphony No. 2 by Yoon Jae Lee, can be performed by a chamber orchestra of approximately 33 to 38 players. The arrangement remains very faithful to Mahler's original and is ideal for professional chamber orchestras, academic conducting programs, student conductor concerts, or whenever the full orchestral forces required for the original are not present. Vocal lines are cued in the instruments and can be performed by orchestra only.
This arrangement is part of the Mahler Chamber Project (MCP), a series of orchestral reductions of Gustav Mahler’s symphonic works created by conductor and arranger Yoon Jae Lee. The project encompasses the 9 complete symphonies, sections of the 10th symphony, and Das Lied von der Erde. Performance material available for hire worldwide through Ondine Press.
