Inspired by stories from the Brothers Grimm, Das klagende Lied (The
Sorrowful Song) is Mahler’s astonishingly assured opus one, a preview of his
epic, kaleidoscopic symphonies. Like those, it bursts with the magic and
mystery of nature, and the joys and fears of childhood.
The charismatic Simone Young leads the orchestra in this
performance featuring singers, Sydney Philharmonia Choirs and not one but two
orchestras - one of them offstage.
