Erwin Stein, a disciple of Arnold Schoenberg, arranged Gustav Mahler's Fourth Symphony for a chamber ensemble. The premiere was given in 1921 with Schoenberg conducting at one of his famous Society for Private Musical Performances in Vienna. Stein had known Mahler and gained a deep understanding of his compositional processes. In this arrangement he sought to highlight the symphony's chamber texture and restore it's tone colours.
