The Orpheus story has been told a million times... I really wanted to do something very different,” says former Mead Composer-in-Residence @Missy Mazzoli. Her new work Orpheus Undone, which narrowly focuses on the most intense and emotional moment in the narrative, receives its world premiere by the CSO in a program led by @Riccardo Muti March 31–April 5.

Riccardo Muti leads the world premiere of Orpheus Undone by the CSO’s former Mead Composer-in-Residence Missy Mazzoli, whose works are celebrated for their raw emotional authenticity. Also on the program are works by two late-Romantic titans. Bruckner’s awe-inspiring Second Symphony is a perfect companion piece to Mahler’s intimate Rückert-Lieder, sung by Elīna Garanča, whose voice “is one in a million, allying grace and power to a commanding authority” (The Independent).
