Gerhaher, Harding & Mahler

Lyrical love, existential pain and sharp satire – Gustav Mahler’s songs Des Knaben Wunderhorn are as enjoyable as they are entertaining, here interpreted by barytone Christian Gerhaher. Led by Music Director Daniel Harding, the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra performs Mahler’s Blumine, originally the second movement of the composer’s first symphony. Bengt Rosengren and Lisa Viguier Vallgårda are the soloists in Witold Lutosławski’s 1980’s piece Double Concerto for Oboe, Harp and Chamber Orchestra. Daniel Harding also conducts the Swedish Radio Choir in three choral pieces by Reger, Bruckner and Brahms.
