About this Event
Maestro Zander is a renowned conductor of the music of Mahler. His love affair with the composer began with the entrancing, sun-filled, playful, and sublime Fourth Symphony. In the final movement the soprano soloist must sing with the voice of a child, which has proven elusive for even the greatest artists. But Claire Booth, an English soprano with a staggering range of vocal expression, is a rare hybrid: a soprano who can produce both the rich tones and deep autumnal sensibility of Strauss's Four Last Songs and the crystalline lightness of the Mahler Symphony No. 4.
Benjamin Zander will give a pre-concert Guide to the Music at 1:45 pm
