La Segona de Mahler

Sala 1 Pau Casals in Barcelona hosts a performance of Mahler's Second Symphony with the OBC, conducted by Ludovic Morlot and featuring Blai Soler.

The work belongs to the repertoire of large-scale symphonic-vocal music, marked by a very extensive orchestral and choral line-up that demands great technical precision on stage. Written by the Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, the Second Symphony, known as Resurrection, moves from grief and death to spiritual transcendence in its monumental final movement, where the choral mass joins the vocal soloists.

In this concert in Barcelona, the Orquestra Simfònica de Barcelona i Nacional de Catalunya (OBC) tackles this score under the baton of its principal conductor, Ludovic Morlot, in an event that also features Blai Soler. The musical proposal is aimed at audiences interested in the great Romantic symphonic tradition and in performances of works of great acoustic scale in the Barcelona auditorium.
