Go for it.  0:)

Nah! I hate "X vs Y" threads! Besides, it's not really as much "M vs D" as "Mahlerites vs Dvorakites" ;D

"Hate" is a strong word.

I reformulate: I hate sin but love the sinner.  ;D

Looks like our skelly, bug eyed friend of 'New World' tendencies is in front, and the self-confessed Austrian Hottentot is unexpectedly suffering badly at the hands of GMG'ers.  Grim.

They both should hang up their gloves and get back to composing. This is a pain to follow.
I love music. Sadly, I'm an audiophile too.

Antonin took longer to develop his talents: compare his Symphony #1 The Bells of Zlonice with the 18-year old Gustav's Das Klagende Lied.

On that basis: debate's over, Dudes!   8)   Game, set, match, and championship Mahler.

But there are other bases where Dvorak wins: e.g. Kammermusik, Folkloric Exuberance   :o     etc.

Looks like the raging hurt of the Austrian Master is now beating down the romantic, skelly eyed New World lover.  I am taking bets right now.

:-\

Thanks, Brian.

I fear most Dvorak fans are too refined to vote in a silly poll like this one.  0:)

Mahler didn't write a 70 minute long string quartet, talk about a missed opportunity. On this basis: Dvořák $:)
