Single sheet concert program, Thursday, 21 June, 1900. Salle des Fêtes du Trocadéro [Paris]. Printed in French. Gustav Mahler conducting the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra in the fourth of five concerts given on the first ever foreign tour of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, at the World Exhibition, Paris.  The program (printed on verso), including the Beethoven Eroica, Schubert Unfinished, and shorter works by Bruckner, Goldmark and Wagner.  Slightly toned around the edges, else fine. 8.75 x 5.5 inches (22.5 x 18.9 cm).

Mahler's position with the orchestra was weakened when, in 1900, he took the orchestra to Paris to play at the Exposition Universelle. No posters were printed for the concerts, and they were poorly attended.  The press was generally not enthusiastic and the tour was a financial fiasco. In fact, the concerts made so little that there was no money left for the return of the musicians to Vienna.  Eventually Mahler was able to contact Albert Salomon von Rothchild (1844-1911) in Vienna for a loan to get the musicians back home.
