The Concert
A celebratory new work by Dai Fujikura, and an epic voyage from the depths of despair to glorious rebirth.
The Music
Sweeping across 90 minutes, Mahler’s mighty ‘Resurrection’ Symphony grapples with themes of life, death and ardent faith, in music of virtually unparalleled poignancy and overwhelming power.
Dai Fujikura’s new work Amber Alchemy was inspired by the bees in the rooftop hives at the London offices of Japanese financial services group Nomura, who commissioned the work for their centenary celebrations.
The Performers
Mahler calls for a huge orchestra, including ten horns and eight trumpets, plus, in the final movement, two singers and chorus. The LSO and its Chief Conductor Sir Antonio Pappano are joined by seasoned Mahlerians, soprano Maria Bengtsson and mezzo-soprano Noa Beinart and Philharmonic Chorus of Tokyo.
