#Throwback to the beginning of our 2019 season. Mahler called his Fifth Symphony a “foaming, roaring, raging sea of sound.” It begins simply enough, with a lone trumpet fanfare, but quickly explodes into one of music’s most passionate and thrilling symphonies. Hear Mahler's most famous symphony at Severance again this week. https://www.clevelandorchestra.com/attend/concerts-and-events/2223/severance/wk-12-Mahler/?performanceNumber=21402 | The Cleveland Orchestra

Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 5, First Movement — led by conductor Stéphane Denève and performed by the New World Symphony in October 2024. From the very first measures, the Symphony sets an ominous tone. The strings introduce three key gestures: a leaping figure with a sharp dotted rhythm, a series of descending sigh-like fragments, and a final motif of three repeated notes — all of which shape the movement ahead. 🎻 Watch the full performance now on YouTube: bit.ly/42m0Pd6 ________ Sinfonía N.º
