The Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra has never before performed Gustav Mahler’s major early work Das klagende Lied – The Song of Lamentation – for vocal soloists, choir and orchestra. Chief Conductor Ryan Bancroft is thrilled to finally take on Mahler’s youthful masterpiece. “It’s a rare and remarkable piece that should be a real draw for Mahler lovers out there,” says Bancroft.

“From the heart, may it go to the heart” was Beethoven’s inscription on the score of this monumental spiritual masterpiece.

After Hilary’s Cronin’s memorable performance with the Festival Chorus in the 2024 Festival she makes a welcome return this year performing alongside some of Britain’s other leading young soloists, Katie Bray, Elgan Llýr Thomas and William Thomas.
