Mahler - Symfonie nr. 4

Waar gaat Mahler - Symfonie nr. 4 over op 24 augustus om 10:04?

Ukrainian conductor Kirill Karabits leads the London Symphony Orchestra in a stunning performance of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 4. The soloist is soprano Lucy Crowe. Mahler's Fourth Symphony opens with the sound of sleighbells and melodies of childlike innocence. But between this deceptively playful opening and the serene finale - a child's vision of Heaven - lies a world of profound emotion and beauty. With soprano Lucy Crowe lending her vocal radiance to this extraordinary finale, the symphony's journey to bliss is complete. This performance was recorded at the Barbican Hall in London, UK, on December 8, 2021.

Bernard Haitink conducts the Berlin Philharmonic in a rendition of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 4 in the Schauspielhaus in Berlin, in 1992. Soloist is soprano Sylvia McNair. Mahler composed his Fourth Symphony in 1899 and 1900, and it premiered in Munich, in 1901. The work incorporates the song "Das himmlische Leben" ("The Heavenly Life"), which Mahler had already composed in 1892. The song presents a child's vision of heaven and is sung by a soprano in the final fourth movements, though the melodic lines are already recognizable in the first three movements.
