Choral Classics

Mahler wrote that “the symphony should be like the world, it should contain everything.” He took his own words to heart when he scored his staggering “Symphony of a Thousand,” which includes two full choruses and more than 100 orchestral players on and off the stage. This series celebrating choral masterworks also includes Bernstein’s Mass, which moved some of its first audience members to call it “the most beautiful thing that they had ever heard” (as reported in the New York Times), and Haydn’s ever-popular Creation, led by Helmuth Rilling—the supreme “interpreter of the German choral repertoire” (Miami Herald).
