What instrument did Gustav Mahler play?

Gustav mahler plays the post horn, piano, etc.... He was a composer and a chef orchestrer. He is generally recognized as the last great German symphonist. He sought to expand the scope and breadth of the symphony to the greatest possible extent, believing that the symphony should "take in the whole world". The major influence on his work, however, was not a symphonic composer at all but rather that of Wagner, who was, according to Mahler, the only composer after Beethoven to truly have "development" in his music. With the exceptions of an early piano quartet. Mahler's entire output consists of only two genres: symphony and song. His music is mostly in the tradition of astro-german.

What does the Op abbreviation used in classical music titles mean?

Op. is short for the Latin word Opus - meaning Work. When a composer's work is classified, set in order, and published, each major work is given a number (approximately in order of composition). When a scholar does the classification (often after the composer's death) the scholar's initial is often given as the prefix to the opus number. Mozart's works were sorted and put in order by Köchel, so the Mozart Piano Concerto #23 (for example) is K.488.

How many main sections does an orchestra have four five or three?

Depends upon the composer. The composer actually calls out which instrument and how many of each are required to perform his or her work. Generally though, there are the following common sections of an orchestra:Strings (violins, violas, cellos, bass,harp)Brass (trumpets, french horn, tuba etc)Woodwinds (oboe, clarinet, bassoon)Percussion (snare drum, timpani, piano)(The piano is a 'stringed' instrument but employs a 'percussive' effort in order to produce sound, so it is a "hybrid" instrument and can be part of the string or percussion family equally)
