The 2024-2025 Season ends with a monumental work, the ‘ferocious outburst of fiendish laughter at the futility of everything’ (Deryck Cooke) that is Mahler’s Ninth Symphony.
At the helm, the ‘passionate and ever-energetic’ Anja Bihlmaier who gave audiences ‘a night to remember’ (Bachtrack) with Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony last season.
Raging against the dying of the light, Mahler’s colossal last work is a mercurial struggle between his lust for life and fear of encroaching death. The result is heart-breaking and filled with exultant tongue-in-cheek humour, the blackest of moods, and the slow, serene leave-taking of its hushed ending.
