CHRISTOPH MARTHALER MEETS GUSTAV MAHLER - TWO GRAND MASTERS RETURN TO THE STAATSOPER HAMBURG Gustav Mahler - star conductor, visionary composer, Hamburg resident by choice. And also: a restless artist who struggled with himself, a “restless one”, as his wife and Viennese icon Alma characterized him. A panorama of human experience unfolds in his music - always oscillating between joie de vivre and dance of death. To mark its 350th anniversary year, the Hamburg State Opera is dedicating special projects to the works of its creative former general music directors and artistic directors and is celebrating the most famous of them at the start of this series. The director Christoph Marthaler, known for his unconventional and playful scenic collages, approaches Mahler's oeuvre in an unusual evening of music theater. This artistic encounter explores the nuances of the composer's songs and instrumental music, interpreted in experimental arrangements by an ensemble of singers, actors and musicians. Following his acclaimed Lulu from 2017, Marthaler now brings this production close to the audience - as an intense chamber play in the opera stabile. Musical direction and arrangement: Johannes Harneit Production: Christoph Marthaler Stage: Duri Bischoff Costumes: Sara Kittelmann Dramaturgy: Malte Ubenauf, Judith Wiemers An evening at low volume Music theater by Christoph Marthaler with compositions by Gustav Mahler
