Performances: May 8-10

Growling marches. Nostalgic lullabies. Thunderous hammer blows of fate. Mahler’s Symphony No. 6 seizes audiences from its very first notes, taking us on a dream-like journey through the composer’s concepts of dark destiny, heroic struggle, and quiet bliss. Don’t miss this tragic masterpiece conducted by Noseda, whose Mahler performances are celebrated as “devilishly good” (Bachtrack).
