SUMMARY:London Symphony Orchestra: Mahler 7
DESCRIPTION:Mahler’s Seventh is the dark horse of his symphonies. \n\n\n\n\nIt doesn’t turn up in orchestra programs quite as often as it should\, but when it does\, this fascinating work intrigues and delights every time. No wonder it has become a signature work for Sir Simon Rattle. \nThe heart of this symphony is ‘music of the night’\, with Mahler taking inspiration from Mozart serenades and lovers singing below windows (there’s even a guitar and a mandolin). He sets up a weird\, nocturnal atmosphere with music that scurries through the shadows of a kaleidoscopic dreamworld. Is he being ironic or should we take him seriously? It’s Mahler\, so it’s complicated. And it’s that ambivalence that makes this symphony seem so modern and up to date. \nMahler Seven\, says Sir Simon\, follows a ‘journey from night to an almost blinding dawn’. Spend the night with Mahler and the LSO and you too can take that sonic and emotional journey. \n\n\n\nPROGRAM: Deborah Cheetham Fraillon AO: Long Time Living Here (Musical Acknowledgement of Country)\n\n\nMahler: Symphony No.7\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday 6 May 7:30 PM; Arts Centre Melbourne\, Hamer Hall; Running Time1 hours 20 minutes (no interval)\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS: Standard: $181.00 – $299.00; Concession: $176.00 – $294.00*

SUMMARY:London Symphony Orchestra: Adams\, Debussy and Ravel
DESCRIPTION:Ever since Pierre Monteux was principal conductor in the 60s\, French music has been part of the London Symphony Orchestra’s DNA. \n\n\n\n\n‘It’s hilarious\,’ says Sir Simon Rattle\, that a London group should be ‘one of the great French orchestras.’ Sir Simon himself is known as a conductor of orchestrally colourful repertoire\, and this program brings together three signature favourites that show this to perfection. \nJohn Adams’ Harmonielehre calls for more than a hundred musicians – the kind of piece that’s normally too big for orchestras to tour. But the LSO is bringing 114 musicians to Melbourne\, making it possible to hear them in this American marriage of harmonic richness and rhythmic momentum. Inspired by a surreal dream of a tanker ship taking off like a rocket\, the mesmerising Harmonielehre at first launches a visceral\, rhythmic assault before inviting us into a mysterious musical world of glittering intrigue and exquisite beauty entirely unlike any other. \nDebussy and Ravel will highlight the LSO’s ‘special sense of colour and ability to play quietly and delicately’. From Debussy’s enthralling sketches of the sea to the voluptuous and sensual take on Greek mythology in Ravel’s ballet suite\, the second half will fill Hamer Hall – and your soul – with the vibrant and glittering sounds of the 20th century. \n\n\n\n\nFriday 5 May 7:30 PM; Arts Centre Melbourne\, Hamer Hall\n\nRunning Time1 hours 45 minutes (including 20 minute interval) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTICKETS: Standard: $181.00 – $299.00; Concession: $176.00 – $294.00*
