On the third program (15 June) Genevieve Dickson (mezzo-sporano), Iain Henderson (tenor) and Jonathan Wilson (piano) perform Mahler’s great song cycle using the score for piano and voice arranged by Mahler himself.

Mahler’s extraordinary music “Song of the Earth” is perhaps the greatest song cycle of the 20th century. It captures the essence of the very human struggle that unites us, and ultimately, the quiet ecstasy of acceptance bringing inner peace.
