Mahler: Symphony No. 2 "Resurrection"

Munich Philharmonic, Valery Gergiev
2016

Gergiev, alongside the Munich Philharmonic, resurrects Mahler’s mighty Second in this strong reading. Bringing charisma and seriousness to the composer’s apocalyptic-yet-hopeful work, Gergiev equally emphasises themes of longing, despair and optimism. Through the prophetic brass swells and percussion tsunamis of this enduring work, faith ultimately prevails.
