Gustav Mahler in Toblach

Gustav Mahler in Toblach (subtitled I Went Out This Morning Over the Countryside) is a live album by pianist Uri Caine's Ensemble, featuring compositions by Gustav Mahler, recorded in Italy and released as a double CD on the Winter & Winter label in 1999.

Reception

David Adler, writing for All About Jazz, noted: "Classical purists haven't been too thrilled with Caine's efforts, but they aren't really his audience. Whether you'd rather listen to Uri Caine's Mahler or to Mahler himself is a subjective question. But one shouldn't deny Caine credit for teaching us something new about music's elasticity".
