Mahler & Pablo Heras‐Casado: La Filarmónica

About the Event

Experience both sides of Mahler's compositional genius. Pablo Heras‐Casado conducts the majestic Fifth Symphony and the intimate 'Songs of a Wayfarer'.

The vast scope of the Fifth Symphony cannot hide its taut, purely orchestral nature. By contrast, the Lieder eine fahrenden Gesellen show Mahler at his most personal, with songs composed on his own texts. Renowned Swedish baritone Peter Mattei sings this delicious cycle, with its wistful themes and clear links to the First Symphony.
