Mahler had a daughter called Maria, who succumbed to scarlet fever and diphtheria. He wrote this music in Venice following her death. Heart breaking and beautiful. Many years later, the cinematography genius, Luchino Visconti, made a film, called Death In Venice and used Mahler’s music. A masterpiece in my opinion.
Check out the film Death In Venice. A photography masterclass. One of my favourites. Eddie
