Production details

A performance of music by Mahler and Kurtag. Gustav Mahler’s almighty Resurrection Symphony had been brewing inside the composer for over seven years, and when it finally arrived in 1892, it was the composer’s most weighty attempt yet ‘to express precisely what words cannot’. Encased in the work’s superlative scale is the most uplifting and reassuring testament of faith from any composer; a fervent expression in music of everlasting transcendence and renewal. ‘With wings which I have won for myself... I shall soar upwards’ proclaims Mahler’s huge assembly of instruments and voices in music. Please note, there is no interval. Royal Festival Hall
