4. Adagietto. Composed by Gustav Mahler. Arranged by Christiaan Janssen. Baton Music orchestral series. 4. Adagietto. Full Score and set of parts. Duration 11:00. Baton Music #BM152-SET. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM152-SET).

The famous Adagietto is the fourth part of Mahler's Symphony nr. 5 and the tempo is 'Sehr Langsam'. Only strings and harp are playing and the long upbeats and expressive appogiaturas of the very slow melodic lines give the music a yearning, almost heartbreaking quality. The Adagietto functions as a slow interlude in F major, between two faster movements in D major, but it also has an expressive weight sufficient for it to stand on its own; indeed, it is often performed by itself.
