Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra
Vasily Petrenko, conductor

Programme:
Schubert: Symphony No. 5 in B-flat Major, D. 485
Mahler, Symphony No.5

It is with regret that we announce that Truls Mørk has had to withdraw from this concert.

A trumpet sounds in the darkness, and Conductor Laureate Vasily Petrenko and the Orchestra plunge into the terror, the glory and the soaring romance of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. There are horn-calls and funeral marches, hymns of triumph and Viennese waltzes, and above all, the heart-rending Adagietto – Mahler’s unforgettable musical love-letter to his young wife.

Post-concert Question Time – starts 15 minutes after the concert ends (Music Room) with Vasily Petrenko.
