Question

The second section of this symphony's last movement switches to G-flat major from D-flat major, the key of a “Great Summons.” This symphony's first movement includes the rising main theme “whole note C, half note D, dotted quarter note F, eighth note A-flat, half note C.” A rarely observed pause before the second movement of this symphony lasts for five minutes. Two timpani strokes open this symphony's C-minor third movement scherzo, marked “with (*) quietly flowing movement.” A B-flat triple forte chord in this symphony is called the “death shriek,” preceding the solemn “Urlicht” (”OOR-likt”) movement. A poem (10[1])from Frederich Klopstock (-5[1])is set to a chorus in the final movement of this symphony, which ends with the toll of a church bell. For 10 points, name this symphony by Gustav Mahler, (-5[1])which follows “Titan” ■END■ (10[2])
