The Tenth: Adagio: Escapades Longworth (+2 More)

The Mahler Players return with the final concerts of the Mahler in Miniature series. Mahler’s Tenth, unfinished at the time of his death, has long fascinated audiences and performers. We perform the Adagio first movement, the only part of the symphony almost entirely completed by Mahler. Alongside Mahler’s final statement is an orchestral version of the last opera in Wagner’s Ring Cycle, Götterdämmerung (“The Twilight of the Gods”). At around 45 minutes in length this is a presentation of the orchestral highlights of the opera, lovingly crafted into an unbroken symphonic line by arranger Iain Farrington.

We are delighted to be collaborating for the second time with Scottish composer Peter Longworth, whose work Pan’s Caprice we premiered to great enthusiasm from audiences in 2015. His latest work, Escapades, takes its inspiration from Mahler’s Tenth and we look forward with great anticipation to presenting it to our audiences in Ullapool, Lossiemouth and Inverness.
