Mahler’s First by Heart
Νοσταλγική βραδιά opera
Kensington Gore, South Kensington, London SW7 2AP, UK
Proms favourites Nicholas Collon and the Aurora Orchestra explore Gustav Mahler’s monumental First Symphony. The performance begins with a dramatised first half featuring mezzo-soprano Natalie Lewis, which delves into the musical and historical narrative of the work. This is followed by a complete performance of the symphony, played entirely from memory by the orchestra. The piece famously weaves together influences from nature, folk song, and klezmer music into a singular symphonic vision.
