Fan Sonny D. sent us this photo, taken at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall in August of 2010. He's CLEARLY Mad About Mahler.

We asked and the people answered. "If you're Mad About Mahler, switch your profile pic to Mahler," we said. And they did.

Had the privilege of attending the very first program in the Mahler project - what a treat! Was wonderful to attend the pre-concert lecture and become familiar with a few of the details of Mahler's life. I'm looking forward to LA Phil LIVE - I wish I could have attended another "live" concert, but thank you for the participation with Fathom Events.

Music is the universal language- and Mr. Mahler spoke it with such passion and beauty!

Mad About Mahler!

February 2, 2012 | Posted by LA Phil Staff in Los Angeles

This probably won't come as a surprise to many, but Gustavo Dudamel is mad about Mahler.

So...can you understand where Gustavo is coming from? Do you wake up with a Mahler symphony in your head? Have you written a blog post about his music or a poem celebrating the composer? Or are you, like so many others, just discovering his work but somehow aware that Mahler's music is special?

Whatever stage of Mahler madness you're at - Mahler newbie, Mahler lover or Mahler maniac - Gustavo and we here at the LA Phil would like you to do something for us.

We want you to show us your Mahler.

It's easy enough to do.

You can tweet about your experience with Mahler using the hashtag #MahlerProject.

ALOUD – A Conversation with Deborah Borda and Norman Lebrecht

Author Norman Lebrecht is Mad about Mahler, too - after all, he's written two books on the subject, including the recent Why Mahler: How One Man and Ten Symphonies Changed Our World.

Here's Lebrecht with the LA Phil's very own President and CEO, Deborah Borda, in a conversation about Mahler held by the Library Foundation of Los Angeles' ALOUD series and co-sponsored by The Mahler Project.
