Concert Information
Mahler’s ‘Resurrection’ Symphony starts with a funeral march, and finishes with the end of the world. In between come tender memories, distant trumpets and a breath-taking musical panorama of the Day of Judgment itself. It’s an incredible journey – and one that often leaves audiences in tears.

And if that sounds like a spectacular way to end our season, just wait until you hear it live with Vassily Sinaisky, a super-sized BBC Philharmonic and the massed voices of the CBSO Chorus committing, body and soul, to some of the most heart-lifting music that Mahler ever composed. It’s quite simply overwhelming – and if you only know it from recordings, you haven’t really heard it at all.
