Mahler Symphony No. 9
Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall 1212 Cathedral Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201
Mahler’s magnificent Ninth Symphony depicts the composer’s epic battle between his passionate love for life and the dread of death, particularly on Mahler’s mind since Beethoven, Schubert and Bruckner had been unable to survive past their ninth symphonies. Marin Alsop conducts this glorious work, a vivid testament to the power of a live concert experience.
