Conductor: Michael Tilson Thomas
Mahler: Symphony No. 6 in A Minor
"The cathartic power of music - to howl, to grieve, and
ultimately to console - has never seemed so miraculous."
- The San Francisco Chronicle
Trivia: Michael Tilson Thomas and the
San Francisco Symphony made a recording
of Mahler's 6th at the SFS concerts of September
12-15, 2001, immediately following the events of September 11 and
captures a passionate response to that day. The CD of that
performance won a Grammy award for "Best Orchestral
Performance."
