Mahler Symphony No.3

MAHLER Symphony No.3

DOMINGO HINDOYAN conductor JENNIFER JOHNSTON mezzo-soprano Sopranos and Altos of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir and Liverpool Philharmonic Youth Choir

There’s nothing like thinking big. “The symphony should be like the world,” said Gustav Mahler, “it should embrace everything”. But even by his own epic standards, his Third Symphony is extraordinary: a whole concert, complete with distant trumpets, children’s songs, glittering marches and lofty mountaintop meditations. Domingo Hindoyan conducts it tonight, and with two choruses, a colossal orchestra and Liverpool’s own Jennifer Johnston joining the adventure, this should be a night and a half.

Please note, this performance has no interval.
