Carnegie Hall presents Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra: Schoenberg & Mahler
$73-$185
- Klaus Mäkelä, conductor
Hear one of the world's great Mahler orchestras perform the First Symphony—a work that the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra performed under Mahler's own baton in its Dutch premiere. For this performance, the historic orchestra is led by Chief Conductor Designate Klaus Mäkelä, one of the international music world's most sought-after leaders. Also featured on the program is Schoenberg's Verklärte Nacht, a lush and beautiful piece originally scored for string sextet (making it the first tone poem ever written for chamber ensemble). Schoenberg's string-orchestra arrangement remains one of his most popular creations and an enduring staple of the concert repertoire.
Please note that there will be no late seating before intermission.
