Does the world-famous Wiener Philharmoniker still need any introduction? It does this time, because this leading orchestra has far more to offer than Viennese waltzes, polkas and marches. Conductor Adam Fischer will prove this in the Queen Elisabeth Hall with a performance of Mahler’s Ninth Symphony. Although Mahler himself once conducted the Wiener Philharmoniker, he never got his last completed work onto its programme: early last century, this monumental symphony would not have been the Viennese audience’s taste. Now it is considered a milestone in the symphonic repertoire. After all, this work translates into sound both a farewell to the nineteenth century, and a sobering exploration of modernism.
The Wiener Philharmoniker and Adam Fischer deliver an optimal performance of this symphonic grandeur. A highlight of the season for music-lovers. Don’t miss it.
