Concert information
Info
The Italian conductor Antonello Manacorda and the Orchestra of the Deutsche Oper Berlin perform one of the compositional highlights in the history of Late Romantic orchestral lieder: Gustav Mahler’s “Lied von der Erde”. The emotionally unsettling six lieder with orchestra are preceded by the meditative and sensuous orchestral work “Blossoming II” by the Japanese composer Toshio Hosokawa. The composer took his inspiration from a lotus flower with its roots in the earth and its blossom on the surface of a lake in 2011. He savours the growth of the orchestral sound which subsequently comes to full bloom in Mahler’s Late Romantic tonal painting.
