After critically-acclaimed recordings of Mahlerโs Fourth and Fifth Symphony, the Czech Philharmonic and Semyon Bychkov continue their Pentatone Mahler cycle with a rendition of the composerโs Second, nicknamed โThe Resurrectionโ. They are joined by soprano Christiane Karg, alto Elisabeth Kulman and the Prague Philharmonic Choir. Starting with a funeral march, passing through the introspective alto song โUrlichtโ and ending in choral bliss and euphoria, Mahlerโs Second is a deeply spiritual and personal contemplation on the secret of life and the possibility of overcoming death.
