Summary: Welcome to this digital edition of Phillip Huscher's Program Notes for upcoming concerts by the CSO June 19-21. The most popular of Schubert’s symphonies, the Fifth is loved for its radiant melodies. Riccardo Muti and the CSO pair it with one of Mahler’s sunniest inspirations, his First Symphony, which carries the listener on a colorful adventure through forests and rustic dances, concluding with a victorious outburst of horns over even the trumpets.
