Lambeth Orchestra
Mahler’s 6th Symphony
Saturday 10th May 2025 7:30pm-9:45pm
Taking place in St John's Church in Waterloo Road, this concert will be an event not to miss!
Mahler composed his Symphony No. 6, Tragic between 1903 and 1904 at the peak of his professional life as a conductor, serving as the director of the Vienna Court Opera. Mahler drew inspiration from philosophical and literary sources and was deeply influenced by the philosophical writings of Friedrich Nietzsche, particularly with his concept of “eternal recurrence” and the idea of embracing life’s challenges with courage and resilience, and Austrian poet Heinrich Leopold Wagner, whose themes of destiny and human suffering resonated deeply with Mahler.
