Gustav Mahler, Symphony No. 2, Resurrection
Jaap van Zweden leads Mahler’s stirring symphony with a profoundly beautiful message. You’ll hear thunderous outbursts and brass fanfares, but in the finale, out of nowhere, a hushed chorus intones the resurrection ode, rising as solo voices soar, singing of forgiveness, divine compassion, and eternal life.
Part of Mahler’s New York, two weeks celebrating the great composer and former New York Philharmonic Music Director.
