Radio 3 In Concert - A Deeply Personal Farewell

Mahler's Symphony No. 9 was the composer’s final work, and one the composer poured his heart and soul into. The other two works in tonight's concert were written in Theresienstadt concentration camp by men whose own lives were cut short by the holocaust.
