Mahler's grand finale
Follow us for a weekly analysis of some of our favourite musical moments. Today we share an analysis of the final bars of Gustav Mahler's Symphony no. 2 "Resurrection". This epic ending sets to music a text by Mahler himself on transcendence and faith. After an anxious and operatic dialogue between the soloists, the music joins with the chorus in a homophonic-choral and diatonically Wagnerian manner to concretise the triumph of life over death. / @-momentsmusicaux- Gustav Mahler (1860–1911) Performance: Leonard Bernstein and the London Symphony Orchestra Sheila Armstrong, soprano Janet Baker, mezzo-soprano Edinburgh Festival Chorus Video made by MomentsMusicaux.
