Ravinia Festival: Mahler's Symphony No. 8

July 26, 2019
418 Sheridan Rd, Highland Park, IL 60035, USA

Marin Alsop conducts Mahler’s Symphony No. 8 (Symphony of a Thousand), combining stupendous settings of the medieval hymn “Veni creator spiritus” and the apocalyptic final scene of Goethe’s Faust. A big deal, always. —M.G.
