About the event
Jeffrey Pollock conductors Sinfonia Ancaster
An evening with two different answers to the eternal question of existence, as asked by Charles Ives’ mystical masterpiece. The texts in Mahler’s Rückert-Lieder respond to the question with their evocations of love and music, while the finale of Mendelssohn’s “Reformation” Symphony seeks to banish any existential doubts with its resolute declaration of faith.
