Tragedy to Triumph by Brahms, Mahler, Sat 28 Oct 2023, From (2023/2023), Conductor Domingo Hindoyan, Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool, United Kingdom

A lone trumpet sounds in the darkness and Mahler’s Fifth Symphony begins its struggle from tragedy to triumph by way of midnight storms, heroic horn-calls, and the most tender love-letter ever written without words – the rapturous Adagietto. “The symphony should be like the world” said Mahler and Domingo Hindoyan begins with another composer who saw life from every side, as he conducts the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir and Orchestra in the stirring, deeply-felt choral music of Johannes Brahms.
