Gustav Mahler, Symphony No. 2, “Resurrection”, IV. Urlicht—sehr feurlich, aber schlict (Olga Borodina with the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra)

---

Wednesday, October 16, 2016, 6:30 PM in the Huntington Studio of the DMC Paul-André Bempéchat will be presenting his newly-published collection of essays on Gustav Mahler, the great composer of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and renowned conductor of the New York Philharmonic.  The book honors the 90th birthday of Henry-Louis de La Grange,  the world’s foremost Mahler scholar.  Charles Altieri (Mass Art ’18) served as publication graphic designer.

Bempéchat will introduce the music of Mahler and introduce the family, life and works of M. de La Grange who, since the age of 20, has tirelessly devoted his life to establishing Mahler in the Pantheon of classical composers.

The world renown Alloy Orchestra (musicians Ken Winokur, Terry Donahue, and Roger Miller) will be bringing their magic to Mass Art 7:00 PM November 1, 2106. Liberal Arts, SIM, and Studio Foundation proudly sponsor this extraordinary event. It’s free and open to all Mass Art, Colleges of the Fenway, and Musuem School affiliates.

Live in the Tower Auditorium, they’re performing their inimitable, riveting, original score for Dziga Vertov’s 1929 silent film classic, The Man With A Movie Camera. (In 2012, Sound and Sight readers voted this astounding Soviet documentary one of the ten greatest movies ever.) Not to be missed!
