Symphony Concert: Mälkki, Schultz, and Others
“Why did you live? Why did you suffer?” With these questions, Gustav Mahler describes his Second Symphony. This monumental work revolves around the great questions of life, death, and redemption. The five movements range from memory and despair to the comforting faith in the Resurrection.
