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.
