Jacaranda opens its final season Planet Schoenberg on September 23 with Hanging Gardens. Schoenberg’s lush Book of the Hanging Gardens is a Late Romantic setting of bittersweet love poems by Stefan George. Its 1910 premiere received a lukewarm reception, but the tides turned in 1920 Paris when critics heard Schoenberg’s genius. Together pianist Steven Vanhauwaert and mezzo soprano Katarzyna Sadej take this forbidden journey into hanging gardens.  Under the direction of Jacaranda's music director Mark Alan Hilt, soprano Julia Metzler and the Jacaranda Chamber Ensemble will perform the chamber version of Gustav Mahler’s beloved Fourth Symphony—composed in 1900 and arranged by Schoenberg disciple Erwin Stein in 1920. The always pragmatic Arnold Schoenberg believed such arrangements offered clarity and an affordable way to hear unknown symphonic music, especially by his friend Mahler.
