Mahler

Symphony No. 3 in D minor

“One is only an instrument played by the universe. A symphony must be like the world. It must embrace everything,” said Mahler, and nowhere is this closeness to nature more evident than in his Third Symphony. It was ten years ago that Mahler specialist Iván Fischer and the Budapest Festival Orchestra last performed this work, one of the longest symphonies in the history of music. Serving as the soloist for the philosopical six-movement composition then was the enchanting concert singer Gerhild Romberger, who will now return to reprise her role – one she has sung in Paris, Monte Carlo and elsewhere – as the heroine of the piece’s “human” movement. Providing the voices of the angels will be the Pro Musica Girls’ Choir and the Cantemus Children’s Choir: founded by by Liszt Award- and Kossuth Prize-winner Dénes Szabó, both ensembles have received the Hungarian Heritage Award and the Bartók-Pásztory Award.

Presented by: Budapest Festival Orchestra
