Mahler Symphony No. 2, Part 2

Today we explore the two middle movements of Mahler's 2nd
symphony. These movements were meant as intermezzi, and are both
memories in their own way. The first is a nostalgic, wistful, and
extraordinarily simple(for Mahler) Austrian Landler. The second
is a bitterly cynical and ironic retelling of a story from
Mahler's favorite collection of folk poetry, Des Knaben
Wunderhorn(The Boy's Magic Horn). These are the movements
listeners sometimes struggle with the most, so let's uncover
their secrets together!
