Song of the Night: Noseda conducts Mahler’s Seventh Symphony

Concert Hall

Join Gianandrea Noseda on a wild journey into twilight... Composed in a furious burst of inspiration, the Seventh is Mahler at his most mysterious. Indulgent, elusive, and delightfully raw, the Seventh is a problem child for some conductors, but not Noseda. From clanging cowbells and titanic brass to intimate midnight mandolin, Mahler’s glamorous, dusk-to-dawn universe is far beyond this world.

Gustav Mahler: Symphony No. 7

Join Gianandrea Noseda on a wild journey into twilight...

Composed in a furious burst of inspiration, the Seventh is Mahler at his most mysterious—some may even say peculiar. (Musicologist Deryck Cooke famously called it the “mad, mad, mad, mad symphony”). Indulgent, elusive, and delightfully raw, the Seventh is a problem child for some conductors, but not Noseda. From clanging cowbells and titanic brass to intimate midnight mandolin, Mahler’s glamorous, dusk-to-dawn universe is far beyond this world. This symphony shines like an evening star.

Musical Roots: Opera in Concert
Noseda conducts Verdi’s Otello

Jun. 7 - 9, 2024

Experience the thunderous music of Otello in the hands of our opera-loving Music Director. Verdi’s score offers a thrilling exploration of uncontrolled human emotion at its most extreme. Hailed as a pinnacle of Italian operatic repertoire, Verdi’s transformation of the Shakespeare play was described by The New York Times as an “ascent towards a higher musical plane” following its 1887 premiere.
