Gustav Mahler deeply loved his daughter Maria Anna, often called "Maria," who tragically died at the age of five from diphtheria or scarlet fever. His profound grief over her death marked a significant emotional turning point in his life. Mahler's love for Maria was evident in his mourning and the fact that he was buried alongside her in Grinzing Cemetery.

Mahler also had a second daughter with Alma, named Anna (nicknamed "Gucki"). While he loved both daughters, Maria's early death left a deep impact on him, and she was particularly beloved by him during her short life.

There is no strong historical evidence to suggest Mahler loved one daughter more than the other, but the emotional impact of Maria's death and his physical closeness through burial next to her indicates a very special and profound bond with Maria. Anna was also adored but lived a longer life and became a sculptor. The tragedy and associated emotional depth concerning Maria seem to highlight a particularly intense love for her.

Dmitri Shostakovich was commonly called by several nicknames, especially among family and close acquaintances. The most frequently used nickname was "Mitya," which is a Russian diminutive form of Dmitri. Variations of this nickname included "Mityushka" and "Mitenka." Another nickname mentioned in biographies is that his father once called him a "goat" as a childhood nickname.

The use of "Dima" is another informal short form seen in discussions of his name, but "Mitya" was the predominant affectionate nickname used by those close to him.

Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 6, often called the "Tragic" Symphony, is widely regarded as his most personal and profound expression of fatalism and human suffering. Composed in 1903-1904 during a period of relative personal happiness and professional success, the work reflects Mahler's inner struggles with fate, mortality, and existential suffering.

The symphony explores the relentless conflict between a courageous hero and the "hammer blows of fate" that ultimately bring tragic destruction. These hammer blows, dramatic percussive strikes in the final movement, symbolize strokes of fate that strike down the hero, representing Mahler's own confrontation with life's harsh cruelties. The symphony is simultaneously marked by moments of lyrical beauty and underlying menace, symbolizing the tension between hope and despair.

Throughout the symphony, Mahler weaves an autobiographical element called the "Alma theme," named after his wife Alma, reflecting the complexity of his emotions and their turbulent relationship. The music delves into psychological depth, portraying a human spirit that is brave yet ultimately overwhelmed by fate.

In sum, Symphony No. 6 is a dramatic and emotionally intense journey through love, fate, and tragic downfall, expressing a struggle for meaning in the face of inevitable suffering and death, with a final movement that ends in tragic resignation rather than triumph.

The happiest point of Mahler's Symphony No. 6 is associated with the theme he called the "Alma" theme, dedicated to his wife Alma Mahler. This joyful and soaring melody appears at the end of the first movement and symbolizes a positive, uplifting moment in the symphony's dramatic narrative. Alma Mahler herself wrote about this theme as an expression of herself within the symphony. Despite the overall tragic nature of the work, this moment stands out as the brightest and most optimistic part of the music before the eventual tragic downfall depicted in the finale.
