Mahler 6
In the calm before the Mahlerian storm, BBC National Chorus of Wales, conducted by Adrian Partington, perform Bruckner’s serene yet intense motets – allow yourself to be swept away by the beautiful harmonies and uplifting clarity of combined voices.
In contrast Mahler’s sixth symphony swings from tragedy to elation – a truly epic work full of angst and drama that strikes the soul like a hammer (quite literally).
