Corinthian Orchestra Performs Mahler's Ninth

Conductor Michael Seal leads a performance of the composer’s final completed symphony, guiding us from tenderness to turmoil, defiance to serenity. Composed in the shadow of illness, loss and a premonition of his own mortality, Mahler’s Ninth Symphony is one of the most profound farewells in the classical repertoire. It is a work of vast contrasts, and it stands as the composer’s last completed symphony, a summation of everything that came before.
