Concert – «Mahler & Chichon (TOP 5)»
Concert — Mahler & Chichon (TOP 5) at the Alfredo Kraus Auditorium, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria.
Gran Canaria Philharmonic Orchestra – Subscription Concert 15.
Chichon conducts Mahler's Symphony No. 5 for the first time in the season, a gigantic fresco where the pulse of life and its multiple expressions beats strongly: from the fatalism and tragic air of the Funeral March, through the extroversion and danceable air of the Scherzo, to the vibrant final Rondo. And among these, the Adagietto, a passage of transcendent lyricism, has achieved extraordinary fame thanks to its inclusion in Luchino Visconti's masterpiece Death in Venice. As a perfect complement, the contrapuntal richness of Bach's Concerto for Keyboard BWV1058, with the Gran Canarian Isaac Martínez Mederos on piano.
Hall: Symphony Hall. Doors open 45 minutes before.
