Globally-renowned conductor Marin Alsop returns to the National Cathedral with the National Orchestral Institute + Festival Philharmonic to perform Gustav Mahler’s Symphony No. 2. Known as Mahler’s “Resurrection,” this orchestral masterpiece was first performed at the Cathedral by Alsop’s mentor Leonard Bernstein in 1984. Last year, Alsop’s Cathedral debut of Beethoven’s 9th Symphony was the highest-attended concert in Cathedral history.
