This podcast features conductor Sir Simon Rattle in conversation with Raymond Bisha as they reference his new recording of Mahler’s Seventh Symphony with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. Sir Simon outlines his personal history with the work, from being overwhelmed at hearing it for the first time as a young schoolboy to his mature understanding of the symphony as “the point at which Mahler decided to start writing the music of the future.”
