CONCERT: Mahler's Fourth Symphony in Markham


Friday, March 25, 2016 at 8 p.m.                                                     Doors open at 7 p.m.
Flato Markham Theatre for the Performing Arts 
Kristian Alexander | conductor        
Rodney Gray  | flutist      
Alastair Thorburn-Vitols | descant  
Alexa Petrenko | host 

Ritual and mysticism fill the air with the haunting sounds of Night on Bald Mountain, Mussorgsky's tone-poem inspired by eerie Russian folklore.  Flutist Rodney Gray masterfully interprets Nielsen's exciting and enigmatic Concerto for Flute.  Centered around a child's vision of Heaven, Mahler's Symphony no. 4 is sure to inspire and empower. A rare chance to hear Mahler's iconic work with the voice of a boy descant instead of the customary soprano.
