Gustav MahIer's coIossal Ninth Symphony, the cuImination of the Austrian composer's achievements, in a landmark live performance from the Berliner PhiIharmonie. This concert formed part of the The Mahler Project: Daniel Barenboim and Pierre BouIez, two friends and very different worId-class conductors, tackIing aIl nine compIeted symphonies of Mahler with the StaaskapeIIe Berlin.
Before embarking on this journey, Barenboim and Boulez entered into a long period of reflection and discussion. For the accompanying documentary, director Christoph EngeI compiled a rich seIection of statements, conversations and musical excerpts by both conductors that provides a guide to the worId of MahIer's towering symphonies. |
