Mahler, 6th Symphony

 
⚠️ CANCELLATION ⚠️
The current health context is forcing the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra to reconsider its arrival in France. We are therefore sorry to announce the cancellation of the performance of Mahler, Symphony 6.

Gustav Mahler’s Symphony n° 6, the “Tragic”, is unquestionably his most personal work. While the four movements and conclusion, revisiting the home key, suggest a return to the Classical form, its highly idiosyncratic and pessimistic quality anchor it firmly in modernity. Conducted by Jonathan Nott, the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra reveals the full complexity of a work that prefigures the torment of the 20th century.
