Under the baton of Klaus Mäkelä, the London Philharmonic Orchestra dives deep into Mahler’s final symphonic testament: a voyage to the limits of human emotion.
The composer’s unfinished Tenth never gets any less heartfelt or strange.

Mahler thought the symphony should ‘be like the world’. But what sort of world?

That’s the question asked by the Second Symphony of Thomas Larcher: a dark and dazzling reinvention of the Western classical tradition from an unmistakably 21st-century perspective.

It’ll make a striking complement to the Cold War angst of Shostakovich’s brooding First Violin Concerto – starring Julian Rachlin, a violinist who brings a new perspective to everything he plays.
