"The dear earth everywhere blooms in Lenz and greens again! everywhere …”
Hans Bethge, The Farewell

Withdrawn into the idyll of his summer residence, Gustav Mahler (1860-1911) was deeply impressed by the surrounding nature in his isolated composing cottage: by the sight of the mountains, the smell of the earth, the forest and birds. In deep admiration for nature, Das Lied von der Erde was written in South Tyrol in 1908 , when Mahler's world lay shaken before him. His daughter Maria had died at the age of four, he himself was diagnosed with an incurable heart condition and resigned from his position as director of the Vienna Court Opera after an anti-Semitic press campaign.

During this difficult time, Gustav Mahler enjoyed the collection of poems The Chinese Flute , translations of Chinese poetry thousands of years old, which he set to music in a symphonic song cycle.

The director and choreographer Jean Renshaw and the scenographer Duncan Hayler transfer Das Lied von der Erde into associative movements and images and bring Mahler's inner emotional world to the stage during the creation of his work.
