An epic concert experience: Symphony No. 6 in A minor, ("Tragic") Mahler

Public

Symphony No. 6 in A minor "Tragic"

Symphony No.1

Approved

Queensland Symphony Orchestra and Chief Conductor, Umberto Clerici, bring to you Mahler’s epic Sixth Symphony - an orchestral work thats grandiosity is evident from the sheer size of the orchestra on stage. Across four huge movements Mahler deals with the idea of fate as something inescapable, from the relentless march that opens the work, to the famous ‘hammer blows’ in the finale (which have to be seen to be believed!). Despite its nickname as the ‘Tragic’, the size and scope of this symphony make it a cathartic experience.

Coupled with the world premiere of Justin Williams’ First Symphony, this will be one of the most epic concerts of the 2023 season.
