Details
Austrian composer Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 4 presents a musical interpretation of heaven. Sleighbells and flutes open the symphony with a delicate chiming, and later, the angelic voice of a soprano arrives in the final movement to sing texts from Mahler’s favorite book of German poetry. To balance out the program, British conductor Dame Jane Glover makes her debut as FWSO’s Principal Guest Conductor with pianist Imogen Cooper in Mozart’s final piano concerto, the No. 27 in B-flat major, and soprano Lauren Snouffer sings the ever-delightful Exsultate, jubilate.
