In 1897, Mahler converted from Judaism to Roman Catholicism in order to secure a post as artistic director of the prestigious Vienna Court Opera ([[Jews]] were virtually prohibited from holding the post at that time). For the next ten years he stayed at [[Vienna]], where he was noted as a great perfectionist. He ran the Opera for nine months of the year, spending the other three composing, mainly at Maiernigg, where he had a small house on the Wörthersee. [http://www.8notes.com/biographies/mahler.asp]
