Mahler work praised yet deemed not enduring
The reviewer lauds Mahler's music for passion and mystery but finds much of the symphony unoriginal and repetitive. While the finale and choral climax show conviction, the work overall is said to drift into trivial and theatrical passages. Mrs. Alcock and Mies Petersen are praised for singing.
