AFCM Evening Concert 4 - Musical Transfigurations
Start Time: 7:30 pm I Finish Time: 9:45 pm I Doors Open: 7:10pm I Interval: 15 Min
Following last year’s triumphant performance of Mahler’s 4th Symphony, we will this time experience Mahler's epic First Symphony Titan, referred to at its conception as a "tone poem in symphonic form", here performed with 15 instruments! This evening’s performance will be concluded by a very special performance of Schoenberg's incredible tone poem Verklärte Nacht or Transfigured Night, here performed in the near dark. This should be magical!
