Mahler's Tragic Symphony at Orpheum Theatre

Edward Gregson

Dream Song
(North American Premiere)

Mahler

Symphony No. 6 in A minor, Tragic

In the penultimate concert of the VSO’s new season, Maestro Bramwell Tovey conducts the North American premiere of Dream Song, a piece by British composer Edward Gregson, originally commissioned to appear in a concert alongside Mahler’s incredible Symphony No. 6. The essence of Mahler fills this work, making it a fitting companion to Mahler’s Sixth, one of the greatest symphonic masterpieces ever written.
