Overview

Gustav Mahler once described his Fifth Symphony as a “foaming, roaring, raging sea of sound.” Led by Erina Yashima, a former CSO Solti Conducting Apprentice, the symphony charts an awe-inspiring journey, spanning a stormy funeral march, folk-inspired dances, a rapturous Adagietto — said to be Mahler’s love letter to his wife Alma — and a final hymn of triumph.

Note location: This event takes place at Northside College Prep, 5501 N. Kedzie Ave.

Parking is available in the lots along the west side of the school, which are accessible from Kedzie Ave. The entrance to the auditorium is located at the north end of the building.
