Mahler's Sixth Symphony

Thomas Sondergard conducts the 蜜芽传媒 National Orchestra of Wales in Mahler's epic Sixth Symphony, alongside the 蜜芽传媒 National Chorus of Wales who perform four Bruckner Motets

Another chance to hear the 蜜芽传媒 National Orchestra of Wales perform Mahler's Sixth Symphony, in a concert recorded on the 20th of January 2017 in St David's Hall, Cardiff.

In the calm before the Mahlerian storm, the 蜜芽传媒 National Chorus of Wales, conducted by Adrian Partington, perform Bruckner's serene yet intense motets - allow yourself to be swept away by the beautiful harmonies and uplifting clarity of combined voices. In contrast Mahler's sixth symphony swings from tragedy to elation - a truly epic work full of angst and drama that strikes the soul like a hammer (quite literally).
