Judith Weir We are shadows
Mahler Symphony no.10

A welcome return for Britain’s biggest orchestra. Salute Mahler’s centenary with the first performance ever at The Sage Gateshead of his last masterpiece which breathtakingly looks back over a lifetime and into the world beyond. Mahler had only completed the first movement and sketched out the rest of the work at his death, but completed by Derek Cooke and Colin Matthews, this is Mahler at his most powerful. Massed singers from The Sage Gateshead join the 170-strong NYO to unleash the drama and excitement of Judith Weir’s magical ‘We are shadows’.

Includes 6.30pm, pre-concert talk in Hall 1 and choirs performing on the Concourse
