Mahler’s Symphony No. 2, “Resurrection,” is celebrated for its themes of life, death, and resurrection. The Lucerne Festival 2003 featured a remarkable performance conducted by Claudio Abbado. The concert included soloists Eteri Gvazava (soprano) and Anna Larsson (contralto), and the Orfeón Donostiarra choir. The symphony’s five movements, emotional depth, and dramatic elements, like the “death shriek,” were dramatically interpreted by Abbado.
