Mahler: Das Lied von der Erde
Leif Ove Andsnes (piano)
Claudia Mahnke (mezzo-soprano)
Stuart Skelton (tenor)
麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra
Edward Gardner (conductor)
Claudia Mahnke and Stuart Skelton are the soloists in Mahler鈥檚 Das Lied von der Erde - a powerful, personal statement of loss, orchestrated with infinite variety and skill.
It鈥檚 paired with another mould-breaking work Britten鈥檚 Piano Concerto. Premiered at the Proms in 1938 with the 24-year-old composer as soloist, the work is as much a celebration of orchestral texture as pianistic bravura, bursting with youthful energy and invention. Norwegian pianist and Proms regular Leif Ove Andsnes is the soloist.
