Jakub Hrůša Conducts Mahler 7
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]The Philharmonia Orchestra paints shades of dusk and darkness from the eclectic influences and sounds in Mahler’s Seventh, nicknamed ‘Song of the Night’.
Repertoire
Mahler: Symphony No.7
The Philharmonia’s 80th anniversary season would not be complete without Mahler’s epic, all-encompassing symphonies.
Acclaimed as ‘London’s Mahlerian orchestra par excellence’ (Bachtrack), the Philharmonia has given many memorable performances of Mahler’s symphonies over its eight decades. The most recent was hailed as ‘the collective performance of a lifetime’ (The Guardian).
Characteristically, Mahler’s sonic references stretch far beyond the concert hall – mysterious horn calls, the sound of a marching band, birdsong, folk dances, cowbells, parodies of a Viennese waltz and a Wagnerian opera, and even a serenading mandolin all rub shoulders in this exuberant fantasy of a symphony.
Like the orchestra, conductor Jakub Hrůša has spent many years getting under the skin of Mahler’s music.
Even listening to records as a boy, he remembers being attracted by Mahler’s ‘will, or courage, to embrace all possible worlds of sound, meanings and genres, as if each symphony was a universe … everyone can find a link to Mahler.’
