RETURN WITH MAHLER
PHILIPPE JORDAN CONDUCTS DIE SYMPHONIE DER TAUSEND

It is the grand return of the much-loved former chief conductor of the Wiener Symphoniker in the orchestra's 125th anniversary season. And Philippe Jordan will be bringing no less a work than Gustav Mahler's 8th Symphony, the "Symphony of a Thousand", with him. The greatest success the composer ever experienced: the applause at the premiere, which was applauded by Thomas Mann and Siegfried Wagner, among others, lasted 20 minutes. The symphony will now be performed by a Champions League ensemble of soloists, including Regula Mühlemann, Elisabeth Teige, Johanna Zion Ootrum and Christopher Maltman. The large choir is formed by the Singverein der Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde and the Wiener Singakademie.
