'One is battered to the ground and then raised on angel's wings to the highest heights.' Mahler’s 'Resurrection' Symphony offers a panoramic vision of human existence and hope for the life beyond – suffering, redemption and renewal generated by huge orchestral and choral forces. The Hallé’s new Principal Conductor Kahchun Wong directs his Manchester-based forces for the first time at the Proms, joined by two star soloists: Norwegian soprano Mari Eriksmoen and Canadian mezzo-soprano Emily D’Angelo, who makes her much-anticipated Proms debut.
