Mahler Symphony No.9

Mahler Symphony No.9Domingo Hindoyan - conductorThe very first notes of Mahler’s Ninth seem to stumble. The stricken composer put the rhythm of his failing heart into the orchestra, and his Ninth Symphony opens with a sigh of farewell. But that’s the beginning, not the end, and throughout the piece, Mahler wrings every last drop of sweetness, terror and beauty from all of life’s twists and turns. Each performance is a unique occasion, and make no mistake, Chief Conductor Domingo Hindoyan will have something powerful – and very personal – to say.
Please note, the concert starts at 2pm, and has no interval.
