A. Guinovart: Marta of the Lowlands Suite (based on the work of Àngel Guimerà) (premiere)
G. Mahler: Symphony No. 5
Franz Schubert Filharmonia
Tomàs Grau, conductor
A musical odyssey
In the inaugural concert of the new season, Tomàs Grau will conduct the orchestra in Mahler’s imposing Symphony No. 5, a musical epic that transcends time and space. With its rich emotional palette, from the melancholic beauty of its famous Adagietto to the exultant euphoria of the Rondo finale, it is one of the greatest symphonies ever written, a musical odyssey that resounds within our souls.
We will start the concert commemorating the centenary of the death of Àngel Guimerà, with the premiere of the ‘Terra Baixa’ Suite by Albert Guinovart, a piece based on the same composer’s ballet of the same name, based on the play by illustrious Catalan playwright.
