About
Considering that Karl Goldmark was largely self-taught, he enjoyed an astonishingly high status in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, receiving great acclaim from the likes of Johannes Brahms and Gustav Mahler.
Goldmark wrote the First Symphony in E flat major op. 26 directly after completing Die Königin von Saba. The premiere took place in Vienna on March 5, 1876, conducted by Hans Richter. The work is more a symphonic poem than a genuine symphony.
