Summary: Welcome to this digital edition of Phillip Huscher's Program Notes for upcoming concerts by the CSO Jan 25-30. Manfred Honeck leads the CSO in Mahler's epic Fifth Symphony. Opening with a lone trumpet call, this spectacular work launched a new chapter in Mahler's music—an instrumental symphonic style filled with an inward-looking dramatic intensity. Till Fellner returns to perform Mozart's grand Piano Concerto No. 25.
