Requiem, Ligeti

Mahler Symphony No. 5

Mahler’s colossal Fifth Symphony embraces an entire world of sound, from the heart-rending funeral march to the serene and loving Adagietto. Based on the reflection of his tumultuous relationship with the daughter of a famous painter and its trajectory from mourning to triumph, the Fifth occupies a pivotal place in Mahler’s endlessly fascinating output. Ligeti’s monolithic Requiem goes beyond this world, as proven by its iconic appearance in the film 2001: A Space Odyssey, the perfect warm up for the full theatrical presentation on June 30 & July 1.
