For Iván Fischer, "an almost divine love that goes beyond the personal" fills the "endless flow" of slow movements in Gustav Mahler's symphonies. The honorary conductor of the Konzerthausorchester feels a special connection to the eclectic musical language of the Viennese composer. This time he is dedicating himself to the world-spanning Third Symphony from 1896, in which there is room for a whole world from donkeys to angels, because Gustav Mahler sets a veritable cosmology in music: from inanimate matter to flowers, animals, people and the sphere of angels to the all-encompassing divine love. Originally, the six movements even had appropriate titles: “Pan awakens. Summer is marching in", "What the flowers in the meadows tell me", "What the animals in the forest tell me", "What people tell me", "What the angels tell me" and finally "What love tells me “. The composer summarized: “Thus my work forms a musical poem encompassing all stages of development in gradual escalation. – It begins with lifeless nature and increases to the love of God!” With Mahler, it goes without saying that this impressive work requires a huge cast, as does the flaring up of different genres.
