‘He who calls us gives us eternal life.’ With these words, Mahler’s Second Symphony – the Resurrection – culminates in a breathtaking choral finale. In this monumental masterpiece, Mahler captures the human soul’s struggle with impermanence before opening the gates to light and eternity. Mahler’s expansive orchestration, distant voices, and transcendent conclusion create an unforgettable experience. Guided by Mahler expert Osmo Vänskä, and featuring top soloists like Carolyn Sampson, this performance in the Elisabeth Hall promises to touch the heart and soul.
