'Symphony No. 7', Mahler |
Performance Notes | Night-time darkness and blazing musical sunlight collide in Mahlers Symphony No. 7 a musical epic that packs the whole world into five contrasting movements. Vast orchestral forces including mandolin, cowbells and guitar conjure a shifting landscape of waltzes, serenades, fanfares, marches and mysterious night-wandering by turns romantic and humorous, sardonic and sincere.
To open, John Storga°rds conducts the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra and tenor Allan Clayton in the world premiere of award-winning composer Tom Coults Monologues for the Curious, inspired by the ghost stories of M. R. James. |
