During his time as the Head of the Vienna State Opera, Gustav Mahler lived in a fourth-floor apartment at Number 2 "Auenbrugger" alley and had a fairly well-established routine:
7 AM - Gustav woke up promptly at this time, whether he had conducted or not the night before and after a cold shower, had breakfast in his room while reading Goethe, Nietzsche, or the Wunderhorn. Later, he dedicated two hours of work to the composition or revision of his works.
10:30AM - Gustav began his 45-minute walk to the theatre.
2:30PM - On his way back close to his home, Mahler would start whistling the first theme of Beethoven's Eighth Symphony to let the cook know to serve the soup. It was not uncommon to invite a friend to eat.
