Programme

Composers

Emotional. Gripping. Universal.

Each performance of Mahler鈥檚 Ninth is something of an occasion, and that goes double when our distinguished Conductor Emeritus, Sir Donald Runnicles, returns to the podium. Gustav Mahler was convinced he鈥檇 never get past his Ninth Symphony 鈥 and for some listeners, the very first notes seem to echo the word 鈥渇arewell鈥. But this is a symphony of life, not death, and through distant fanfares, haunted waltzes and deep dark wells of terror and sorrow, it tells a tale of bittersweet memories, enduring love, and a creative spirit that acknowledges no limits. Unmissable.

This concerts ends at approximately 9:05pm.

Please note there will be no interval and no latecomers permitted.
