Cornelius Meister and the Staatsorchester Stuttgart conclude their multi-year Gustav Mahler cycle with three concerts. Since 2018, they have performed all nine of the Viennese composer’s symphonies together. In just one week, the Stuttgart Liederhalle offers a unique overview of Mahler’s symphonic oeuvre: from the world-embracing First to the tragic Sixth and the pensive, introspective Ninth.

Summer Concerts

Höhenpark Killesberg

Mozart’s Symphony No. 32 in G major is one of his shortest contributions to this genre. He probably used it as an overture for the opera La villanella rapita by his Italian contemporary Francesco Bianchi. Mozart contributed not only overtures, but also arias to stage works by other composers. Soprano Claudia Muschio presents two of these together with conductor Lothar Zagrosek, who is once again leading the Stuttgart State Orchestra almost twenty years after his departure as General Music Director. Anton Bruckner was deeply impressed by Mozart’s somnambulistic ability: “I deeply admire Mozart and try to preserve his clarity and beauty in my own work.“ The Austrian Romantic surprised his contemporaries with this confession. Throughout his life, Bruckner was accused of not structuring his compositions clearly enough. As a result, he reworked almost all of his nine symphonies several times. A rare exception is his Seventh, which was immediately well received. Bruckner succeeded in creating an exceptionally balanced work - with impressive themes and dramatic progressions.

7. Symphony Concert

Esther Dierkes and Björn Bürger present a program of songs in the foyer of the opera house, accompanied by Götz Payer on the piano.

2nd Song Recital

The Staatstheater Stuttgart

I walked with joy through a green forest

Do you love for beauty

Who thought up this little song

Rhine legend

Where the beautiful trumpets blow

Don't look into my songs

Warm summer night

Lost effort

Consolation in misfortune

Songs of a Wayfairer

When my sweetheart gets married

This morning

I walked across the field I have a glowing knife

My two blue eyes

It's cozy with you

I walk among flowers
