New York Philharmonic This concert was Gustav Mahler's final appearance at Carnegie Hall. Although calendars and advertisements list Carnegie Hall performances by Mahler as late as 4/2/1911, his last CH appearance was 2/21/1911; illness prevented him from conducting again. He sailed for Europe on 4/8/1911, and died in Vienna on 5/18/1911. The premiered works are not identified as such in the printed concert program; premiere information has been confirmed from the New York Times review.
