NY Phil: Dudamel Conducts Mahler's Ninth

• Gustavo Dudamel, guest conductor

Gustav Mahler — the Philharmonic's Music Director from 1909 to 1911 — once said, "A symphony must be like the world. It must contain everything." By the time his Ninth fades away into the profoundest silence, it seems to contain even more than that. Gustavo Dudamel conducts. 

This series runs May 19-21. Please note: Tickets for the May 19 and 21 performances are now sold out.

These concerts will also be streamed on the Hauser Digital Wall.
