‘To the city of Gurre you are commanded! Today, the dead ride forth!’ When Arnold Schoenberg retold the old Danish legend of Gurre Castle, he didn’t just create a Game of Thrones-like musical saga of love, death and the supernatural. Gurrelieder is quite simply one of the most ambitious choral works of all time, written for a colossal orchestra and filled with music of intense emotion and breathtaking beauty. Every performance is an event, and to open our new season Edward Gardner has brought together two great choruses and a world-class cast. If you love Strauss or Mahler, you need to hear Gurrelieder: this should be spectacular.
