Gustav Mahler in Toblach (subtitled I Went Out This Morning Over the Countryside) is a live album by pianist Uri Caine's Ensemble featuring compositions by Gustav Mahler recorded in Italy and released as a double CD on the Winter & Winter label in 1999.

Reception

Writing for All About Jazz, David Adler said "Classical purists haven't been too thrilled with Caine's efforts, but they aren't really his audience. Whether you'd rather listen to Uri Caine's Mahler or to Mahler himself is a subjective question. But one shouldn't deny Caine credit for teaching us something new about music's elasticity".
