Mahler's Fifth
Southbank Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]From wit to wonder – in a night of vivid storytelling, the Royal College of Music Symphony Orchestra and conductor Kahchun Wong perform 20th-century greats.
Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No.2 bursts with youthful energy and sparkling wit. Performed by rising star Mariamna Sherling, this lively showpiece offers moments of lyrical beauty alongside shining virtuosity.
In stark contrast, Mahler’s monumental Symphony No.5 takes the listener on a profound emotional journey, from its dramatic opening funeral march to the radiant joy of the final movement.
With the deeply moving Adagietto at its heart, this symphony is one of the composer’s most striking and enduring works.
Uniting these two worlds this evening are one of the world’s leading conservatoires, the Royal College of Music Symphony Orchestra, and principal conductor of the Hallé, Kahchun Wong, internationally acclaimed for his electrifying stage presence.
