About this Performance
Mahler’s symphonic farewell is remarkable in so many ways and beloved by generations of music fans. Beginning and ending with slow movements, the Ninth repeatedly flouts tradition, combining raw, raucous enthusiasm with heartbreaking gestures of acceptance and final goodbyes. MTT has been called the leading Mahler interpreter of his generation by The New York Classical Review, who added, “His ideas about the composer never rest on predictability. They are constructively restless.”
This performance is generously supported by Pasadena Showcase House for the Arts.
