The Los Angeles Philharmonic presents Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde (Song of the Earth) conducted by Gustavo Dudamel. Mahler’s penultimate completed work is unclassifiable—neither song cycle, nor symphony, nor operatic drama. The penetrating settings of ancient Chinese poems reveal a universe of experience within an individual, our relationship to nature, and the sometimes cruel, sometimes beautiful cycle of life. The performance will be staged by the LA Phil’s artist-collaborator-in-residence Yuval Sharon in conjunction with Teatrocinema, a Chilean theatre company renowned for innovative interaction between video and live performers. Tenor Russell Thomas and mezzo-soprano Tamara Mumford perform.
