Sara Davis Buechner returns to the stage to perform the Liszt Piano Concerto No. 1, which Liszt composed over the course of 26 years. The season concludes with Mahler’s Symphony No. 1, often referred to as “The Titan.” Mahler’s first symphony was often thought to be his favorite, as he conducted it more than any other of his symphonies.

The Oncenter Crouse Hinds Theater

Mahler’s symphonies are his spiritual autobiographies, laying out his experiences and suffering for all to hear. His strikingly confident Symphony No. 1 of 1889 is cast in two parts: first the optimism and energy of youth; then the crisis of rejection and death. Yet Mahler’s symphony powers towards an exultant conclusion, overtly popular in style and imbued with a new confidence – the confidence of life itself. Marios Papadopoulos conducts Mahler’s Titanic symphony here after the world premiere of Sisyphus by University of Oxford and OPO Composers' Workshop alumnus Marcello Palazzo and another work from our Composer-in-Residence Alexey Shor: with unexpected twists in its traditional structure, Shor’s Piano Concerto No. 1 blends nostalgia and exhilaration, and features the remarkable soloist Behzod Abduraimov.

This captivating series of performances is a highlight of the Mahler Grooves Festival, taking place from February 20 to February 23, 2025.

This piece, once removed from the symphony and later rediscovered, sets the stage for a night of introspection and beauty.

Completing the evening is a selection from "Des Knaben Wunderhorn" (The Boy’s Magic Horn), a collection of German poems set to music by Mahler.

Dame Sarah Connolly DBE and Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha, 2021’s BBC Cardiff Singer of the World, lend their voices to this performance of Mahler’s ‘Resurrection’ Symphony.

Mahler’s Second Symphony was one of his most successful works during his lifetime. Inspired in part by the death of his colleague and friend Hans von Bülow, the symphony is the composer’s tribute to his life-long ideals of the beauty of resurrection and the afterlife.

It was at Bülow’s funeral that Mahler heard the Friedrich Gottlieb Klopstock hymn Die Auferstehung (The Resurrection), the refrain of which is ‘Rise again, yes, you shall rise again my dust’. These words, combined with Mahler’s own verses, provide the text for the symphony’s fifth and final movement, written for soloists and chorus combined, and probably the greatest depictions of redemption and renewal in all music. Under the baton of Kahchun Wong, this promises to be a truly memorable experience.

Inside Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony

Mention Mozart’s G minor Symphony, and you tend to think of the “Great” one that belongs to the middle of his legendary final symphonic trilogy — the one that opens with a motif that has even had an afterlife as a mobile ringtone. But there is also the “Little” G minor: a youthful, wild work by the 17-year-old Mozart that is driven by an expression of unbridled fury and sharp dynamic contrasts — the very embodiment of Sturm und Drang. With the Ossetian conductor Tugan Sokhiev on the podium, the Vienna Philharmonic will reveal this “other” Mozart, who was anything but delicate rococo. They will then unleash the storms of life and love with Gustav Mahler’s autobiographically inspired First Symphony. Sokhiev holds a special affection for Mahler’s debut symphony and finds it distinctly dramatic: “For me, Mahler is always a man of the theater,” he says. “He had specific images in mind as he composed. Close your eyes in the first movement and you feel as though you’re standing in the middle of nature. The third movement, with its procession of animals that don’t quite know whether they’re celebrating the hunter’s death or mourning it, is full of irony. And in the finale, life triumphs.
