Death and Ressurection – Documentary – Mahler Festival Online
100%
Mahler’s Second Symphony is a call to a new life, a different life. A better life, that has nothing to do with this earthly life. The composer asks himself – and us – the question: ‘Why do we live, why do we die?’ He rehearses the last judgement and rewrites the ending.
Mahler scholar Morten Solvik, baritones Roderick Williams and Thomas Hampson, soprano Jessye Norman and granddaughter Marina Mahler tell you the story of the Second Symphony.
This documentary is made possible by the Mahler Foundation and is part of Mahler Festival Online. The documentary will premiere this Saturday at 8 PMAfter the documentary you can enjoy Symphony No. 2, played by the Concertgebouworkest and conducted by Daniele Gatti.
