‘...enemies, friends and brothers, all of nature in my embraces!’ (Alexey Tolstoy)

Tchaikovsky and Mahler, though possibly divided by cultures or language, revered and championed each other in life. Their music, unafraid to release potent feelings or ask our biggest spiritual questions, still unites us all across borders, political conflicts and war in reminding us of our souls’ shared fragility and humanity.
