Transcendence

Conductor Laureate Yaniv Segal returns to TCS for a program that captures the outer reaches of the human experience. The Prelude and Liebestod (“Love-Death”) from Richard Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde explores metaphysical ideas through trailblazing musical sonorities. Gustav Mahler’s Totenfeier (Funeral Rites) eventually became the opening movement of his monumental Second Symphony. Artistic Director Matthew Aubin directs a trio of mid-century concertos and a new work by TCS Resident Composer Aaron Dai.
