Symphonieorchester & Chor des Bayerischen Rundfunks / Sir Simon Rattle

In the organizer's words:

World music

Listening to Sir Simon Rattle talk about Gustav Mahler, it is as if he knew the composer personally. But it probably feels the same when you, like the chief conductor of the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, have been working with the deeply personal and autobiographical music of the late Romantic composer for more than 50 years. Mahler once said that his symphonies contained a whole world - and no one can guide the orchestra and audience through these intricate worlds better than Sir Simon Rattle.
