Mahler 6: Scherzo-Andante or Andante-Scherzo

Mahler_6

This week we have Stéphane Denève conducting Mahler 6 in Glasgow on Thursday 11 March and Edinburgh on Friday 12 March.

No two concerts are ever the same but with this programme that's certainly the case. There has been some discussion over the sequence of the movements that make up Mahler's Sixth Symphony and in acknowledgement of this we're going to try something different. On Thursday you can experience the Allegro-Andante-Scherzo -Finale and in Edinburgh the more frequently recorded Allegro-Scherzo-Andante-Finale.

We would very much like your feedback on this, indeed if you're able to attend both concerts and experience first hand the differences we'd be delighted but appreciate this may not be a very practical solution for many of you.

If you'd like to learn more about the origin of the movement order in Mahler 6, look no further than the video below. Richard Payne, our librarian took some time out to explain the background to this and hear his thoughts on this too.
