Mahler 1 with an improvised orchestral prelude

Esplanade March 2023. The orchestral institute of YST’ performed Mahler’s 1st symphony. In the spirit of our creative conversations with the composers, the students of YST worked hard to design and perform a quasi improvised Prelude before playing the actual symphony. It was appropriately named: Awakening the Titan. For a full version of the concert, watch the performance on YouTube:
