Spoken

Gustav Mahler’s last word was “Mozart”, but he’d already said his farewells in music, and nowhere more movingly than in Das Lied von der Erde (The Song of the Earth): six heart-rending songs that wring out every last drop of life’s sorrow and sweetness. 80 years almost to the day since the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra was formed, it’s a wonderfully reflective way to mark the occasion, perfectly paired with the life-affirming sunshine of Mozart’s Oboe Concerto – performed tonight by a true poet of the oboe. BBC SSO Artist-in-Association Matthias Pintscher brings a composer’s empathy, and conducts his own beautiful Idyll: a musical journey towards the light, written in memory of a friend.
