"...One of the leading composers of the day, Gustav Mahler, composer of Das Lied von der Erde and other light classics..."

[I'm quite fond of "Das Lied von der Erde" and "Kindertotenlieder." Mahler excelled at vocal music. His instrumental music bores me, but I tolerate his symphonies because so many of them start or end with choral or solo vocal music. Alma was not only Mahler's wife, but also a composer in her own right.]

To continue Tom Lehrer's spiel:

"The first one she collared was Mahler,
Whose buddies all knew him as Gustav,
And each time he saw her, he'd holler,
'Ach, that is the fraulein I must have.'"

And who but my lady greensleeves.
