The concert «Mahler. Symphony No. 5» conducted by Theodor Currentzis in St. Petersburg: a unique opportunity to hear the works of Alexei Retinsky and Gustav Mahler

The Mahler Concert. Symphony No. 5 conducted by the famous conductor Theodor Currentzis at the Philharmonic Hall. Shostakovich promises to be an unforgettable event of the musical season. This evening will be a real gift for connoisseurs of classical music and anyone who wants to plunge into the world of grandiose musical canvases.

This time, the musicAeterna orchestra will perform on stage, which, under the direction of Theodor Currentzis, has been impressing listeners with its interpretations of classical works for many years. Mahler's Fifth Symphony, one of the most significant in his work, will be performed with special skill and depth.

The five-part structure of Mahler's Fifth Symphony covers a wide emotional spectrum - from the tragic Funeral March to the stormy finale. This path reflects difficult experiences and a sincere attempt to resolve an internal conflict. For the first time, the symphony will be performed in dialogue with a contemporary work by Alexei Retinsky, specially written for this event. His work "Anaphora" explores the dramaturgy of the movement of musical thought, going beyond the usual symphony orchestra.

The combination of classical composition and atypical instruments such as electric guitar, simantrons and water whistles gives Retinsky's work a special expressiveness. This musical journey promises to be exciting and unexpected, opening up new facets of symphonic music.
