As an organist Hans Rott had completed with distinction his course of studies with Anton Bruckner at the Vienna Conservatory, but he had found it difficult to establish himself in Vienna as a composer and so had been forced, much against his wishes, to seek employment elsewhere.

Rott seems to have been anxious to rethink how a large-scale multi-movement work could be put together, and he came up with some interesting and innovative answers.

After a long familiarity with the music of Mahler, discovering the Hans Rott Symphony in E is less like a conscious reach into memory than an unforeseen flashback.

The life of Hans Rott was cruelly short and yet among his few compositions there was one, a great symphony, that made a powerful impression on his organ teacher, Anton Bruckner, and had a significant influence on the work of his contemporaries, notably Gustav Mahler, two years his junior.
The story, briefly, is this: Rott was born in Vienna on 1 August 1858, the son of an actor and his mistress who eventually married in 1862 after the death of the actor's wife.
At the age of fourteen his mother died, and two years later Rott entered the Vienna Conservatoire, but family circumstances deteriorated; his father died and he was forced to leave studies for an office job, but in due course found an organist post with free lodging.

Discovering that the Symphony in E Major by Hans Rott (1859 - 1884) had been a work from which Mahler might have "borrowed" ideas for his own works was enough for me to "investigate further" by acquiring this recording.
Rott had been little more than a curious footnote to music (and particularly Mahler music) history, one about whom we can only wonder "what might have been," had he lived longer.
Despite the unequal quality of the movements, one can hear Mahlerian "pre-echoes" as early as the first movement, where Rott's writing for solo trumpet is eerily reminiscent of the posthorn solo in the Mahler Third Symphony (and the trumpet writing in the discarded "Blumine" movement of his First Symphony).

The ‘discovery’ of the Rott Symphony by Dr. Paul Banks in the 1980s was a truly fascinating event.
The general consensus was that here indeed was a remarkably assured musical voice, indeed one that displayed uncanny pre-echoes of Mahler himself, though these parallels were taken to ridiculous extremes.
Rott’s orchestration is a little clumsy and densely textured in places (I’m sure a performance would have caused the composer to put much of this right) and here the greater experience and professionalism of Davies and his Vienna forces pays dividends.
