Concerts 11/12   Unusual Mahler

Unusual Mahler rich dreamy visionary

Centering around the work of Gustav Mahler’s Piano Quartet, the listener encounters beauteous colours of composers for whom Mahler is or has been important. Mahler’s late romantic work is placed over against Schoenberg’s String Trio, a delirium in sound after Schoenberg’s near death experience. Träume am Kamin of Max Reger by extension dreams quite another delirium. The visionary Sonatine Seconda by Feruccio Busoni and works of Berg and Rihm add context to Schoenberg’s musical world. Playing these wonderful chamber music concerts the DoelenEnsemble assimilates the hearing experience with the profile of the ensemble: Unprecendented Classics.
