I just received a brochure from Lincoln Center that referred to Mahler's song cycle. I also recall reference to the cycle of Beethoven symphonies. It seems to me that a more appropriate term would be "sequence", since there is no coming back to the first song (or symphony) after the last one is performed.
What do you think?
