Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra

Mahler Symphony No. 6 Concert

MAHLER
Symphony no. 6
(79 minutes)

Benjamin Zander, conductor

 

 

 

ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The BPYO performed Mahler’s troubled, turbulent Sixth Symphony some years ago, and the brilliance and emotional depth of that performance is preserved in a spectacular commercial recording of the event. It is truly hard to believe that a youth orchestra—ANY youth orchestra—could plumb the turbulent depths of this great symphony—and yet they will do it again. You won't want to miss this!

-Benjamin Zander
