Mahler's 'Resurrection' Symphony from Rotterdam
Lahav Shani conducts Mahler's Symphony No 2 in C minor, 'Resurrection', at the Rotterdam Philharmonic's Memorial Concert for the Bombardment of Rotterdam.
The Rotterdam Philharmonic plays Mahler's Resurrection Symphony.
Eighty-three years after the historic heart of Rotterdam was destroyed by bombs, the orchestra commemorates the city鈥檚 rise from its own ashes with Mahler鈥檚 'Resurrection' Symphony. In overwhelming fashion, the symphony paints a vision of apocalypse and resurrection. Fear makes way for rapture: 鈥楾here is no punishment and no reward,鈥� wrote Mahler. 鈥楢n overwhelming love illuminates our being.鈥� The orchestra's chief conductor leads the annual memorial concert in the Grand Hall, Rotterdam.
Presented by Fiona Talkington.
