Mahler: Das klagende Lied | Sydney Symphony Orchestra | Digital Season
Description on Youtube:
Enchanted horns usher into dark forests where two brothers vie for the queen’s hand, with dire consequences… Inspired by stories from the Brothers Grimm, Das klagende Lied (The Sorrowful Song) is Mahler’s astonishingly assured opus one, a preview of his epic, kaleidoscopic symphonies. Like those, it bursts with the magic and mystery of nature, and the joys and fears of childhood. The charismatic Simone Young leads the orchestra in this performance featuring singers, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs and not one but two orchestras - one of them offstage. Artists Sydney Symphony Orchestra Simone Young, conductor Eleanor Lyons, soprano Michaela Schuster, mezzo-soprano Steve Davislim, tenor Andrew Collis, bass-baritone Sydney Philharmonia Choirs __ SUBSCRIBE to Sydney Opera House: https://soh.online/Subscribe Sydney Opera House is an Australian icon and one of the busiest performing arts centres in the world.
