7.Philharmonisches Konzert by Mahler, P 30 apr 2023, Alates (2023/2023), Dirigent Benjamin Reiners, Wunderino Arena, Kiel, Germany

Life is not a request concert or sometimes it is. The musicians of our orchestra voted together on the program of the seventh Philharmonic Concert and decided on Gustav Mahler's monumental Fifth Symphony. It marks the composer's temporary return to purely instrumental music in the symphony and a turning point in his work. Initially not understood by contemporaries when it premiered in 1904, the Adagietto of the Fifth finally made a career in film music in Luchino Visconti's »Death in Venice« in 1971.
