CBSO and Andris Nelsons: Metamorphosen and Mahler 2
Rohan Shotton, 17th September
Pairing Richard Strauss’ Metamorphosen with Mahler’s mighty Resurrection Symphony made for an emotionally exhausting season opener in Birmingham, taking a packed Symphony Hall from anguished lamentation to fist-clenched fury and, ultimately, shattering resolution.Strauss’ unique work for 23 solo strings is widely accepted as being a reflection on 1940s violence.
