BBC Proms: Mahler’s First by Heart
Royal Albert Hall, SW7 2AP , [Venue Details]‘All the floodgates within me have opened … my whole being points me towards this symphony.’ Proms favourites Nicholas Collon and the Aurora Orchestra are back to lift the bonnet on another symphonic masterwork.
Fifteen years in the making, Mahler’s First Symphony was a major statement of intent – a musical distillation of the composer’s life in sound, from klezmer bands to the natural world, folk dances to funeral marches, symphony and song united as one.
A dramatised first half featuring mezzo-soprano Natalie Lewis introduces both the music and the story behind it, before a complete performance of the symphony after the interval.
Programme
A musical and dramatic exploration of Mahler’s Symphony No. 1 c45’
Interval
Mahler - Symphony No. 1 in D major (performed from memory) 53’
