León / Ravel / Mahler / Ives / Copland

The German Symphony Orchestra Berlin is presenting a very diverse program: Tania León is creating a musical monument to a Cuban tree. Ravel explores Greek folk songs, Mahler explores German folk songs. Charles Ives sets American landscapes and history to music.



And with the orchestral transcriptions of four Bach pieces by the conductor Sir Andrew Davis, who recently passed away, the evening finally ends with early music retold
