Under its current chief,
the Leipzig Gewandhaus
Orchestra has been
recovering its lost
Mahler tradition. Their
second collaboration this
year includes one of
Mahler’s most perfectly
realised works, ‘the only
Sixth, despite the
“Pastoral”’ in the words
of Alban Berg. This is
music of exceptional
range and power, whose
fateful hammer-blows
seem to portend the crises in Mahler’s own
life and the wider world. Our curtainraiser
is an imposing and vibrant
memorial to the dead of two world
wars, a compositional trailblazer in
its own right.
