Gilbert and Ax Play Mozart and Mahler

It’s one of the most satisfying pairings in all classical music: Mozart and Mahler. Our series of concerts from Europe and Britain concludes in northern Germany with the NDR Radio Philharmonic, pianist Emanuel Ax, and conductor Alan Gilbert exploring music by both composers. First, Ax takes the stage for Mozart’s elegant Piano Concerto No. 25, followed by the epic Symphony No. 5 by Gustav Mahler.
