Gustav Mahler’s Second Symphony was composed over six years and is written on an epic scale for a huge orchestra of over 100 musicians, chorus and soloists.
The music takes us from a solemn march to an inspirational, cathartic finale, with interludes of gentle nostalgia, disturbing visions and the simple, angelic beauty of a mezzo-soprano solo along the way.
