BBC Philharmonic - Mahler's Symphony No. 2 ‘Resurrection'
‘The whole thing sounds as though it came to us from some other world. I think there is no one who can resist it. One is battered to the ground and then raised on angel’s wings to the highest heights.’ – Gustav Mahler
Mahler’s Resurrection is a colossal work of drama, beauty, and power. From its gripping opening funeral march to its earth-shaking finale, this is music on the grandest possible scale that demands to be experienced live.
This is a work that redefined the possible, pushing every musical and emotional boundary. The massed forces of a vast orchestra, offstage brass, vocal soloists, and a powerful chorus combine to create a truly overwhelming experience.
130 years after its first performance, Mahler’s Resurrection remains one of the most profound and life-affirming works of art ever created.
