Weill & Mahler

See Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny in

All-embracing Weill and Mahler from Axelrod and La Verdi

James Imam, 26th April

This was raw Mahler at its most all-embracing. The musicians seemed to embrace the entire world. As an audience member made to leave the hall, Axelrod leant over the balustrade to shake his hand.
