Program notes

Communion in art, by Claudio Abbado.

In August 2010 Claudio Abbado performed Mahler's Ninth Symphony with his "orchestra of soloists" – the Lucerne Festival Orchestra founded in 2003 and made up of some of the greatest players. This performance of the composer's last symphony was a high point in their successful Mahler cycle.
