๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ฅ Symphony No. 2 (โResurrectionโ)
In 2020, the Cleveland Orchestra received an extraordinary, unique gift: the full, handwritten score of Gustav Mahlerโs Symphony No. 2. Composed for a massive orchestra, choir, and soloists, this meditation on humanityโs search for meaning in life and death is riveting from its darkly ferocious opening to its ecstatic finale. Music Director Franz Welser-Mรถst and members of The Cleveland Orchestra discuss the emotional power of this passionate, tempestuous piece and the life-altering experience of consulting Mahlerโs manuscript. Welser-Mรถst and the Orchestra are joined by soprano Lauren Snouffer, contralto Marie-Nicole Lemieux, and The Cleveland Orchestra Chorus in an exhilarating performance that breathes new life into this powerful piece.
