Mahler: Symphony No. 2 (“Resurrection”)
Mahler’s Symphony No. 2, the transcendent ‘Resurrection,’ features the return of radiant soprano Jessica Rivera and the CSO debut of mezzo-soprano Ronnita Miller. Colossal in both length and orchestration, Mahler’s second symphony offers a profound reflection on life and redemption.
“I’m thrilled to be performing this fine work of art. Mahler’s inspiration for the choral portion is the subject of resurrection. It does not disappoint! It grabs my heart with the first floating, pianississimo notes we sing and builds so very gradually in intensity to a dramatic, joyful, heart bursting, fortississimo ending. It is a wonderful lift to the spirit!” -Julie Cannell, Columbus Symphony Chorus, Soprano I
