    Robert Olson, Music Director :.: January 8= 10,1993 Grusin Music Hall, Imig MuSic Building' University of Colorado College of Music, B,oulder, Coloradb The Colorado MahlerF est Mahler was the first composer to shatter the Victorian intellectual tradition of bland rationality and blind optimism. His vision of the world, so clearly mirrored in his works, reflected the problemsof life,of love, of achievementand failure, of happiness and fame from the viewpoint of death. Predictably, Victorian audiences were utterly perplexed by both the emotionalhonestyandemotionalcomplexityofthisapproach. However,today'sgeneration of listeners finds itself increasingly in accord with a composer who does not spare them the trouble of stretching their emotional range. The American critic David Hall eloquently summarized the whole history of public reaction to Mahler: "For the audiences of Mahler's own day, and perhaps even for those between the two world wars, his musical message was too strong a dose of bitter medicine . Today, whatwere once Mahler's private anxieties and aspirations . now find an echo in the experiences of many hundreds of thousands. They are those for whom the circumstances of war, of over-developed technology and under- developed humanity . have posed the hard<ore questions of faith in human destiny that Mahler, as a solitary individual, tried to answer. Now that his problems have, in a sense/ become conunon to all of us, his music has begun to find a home throughout the world." FIis music may reach contemporary ears/ but contemporary budgets do not promote frequent performances of the great symphonies of Mahler, other than the popular Firsl and Fourth symphonies.
