Jascha Horenstein
The second of two programmes featuring the conductor performing the music of Mahler. Today, a chance to hear again one of his recordings that has long since become a collector's item, plus his reflections on how he came to Mahler's late song-symphony. A lifelong student of Eastern philosophy, Horenstein brings a special authenticity both to this work and to the music of Busoni, whom he knew during his youth. Busoni Suite: Das Brautwahl
Royal Philharmonic
Mahler Das Lied von der Erde
Alfreda Hodgson (contralto), John Mitchinson (tenor),
