The principal work on today's program is the Second Symphony of Gustav Mahler. This majestic work sets the pattern for those symphonies following with the inclusion of a choral segment. Mahler was no stranger to choral works and he wrote most of his lyrics himself instead of borrowing from one of the classics poets. So here goes:
Cello Concerto in C minor, RV 402 by Antonio Vivaldi performed by Ofra Harnoy - cello; Paul Robinson conducting the Toronto Chamber Orchestra
Symphony No. 2 in C minor - "Resurrection" of Gustav Mahler. Featuring Eva Martin, Jessye Norman - sopranos with Lorin Maazel ocnducting the Vienna Symphony Orchesta and Vienna State Opera Choir.
