National Youth Orchestra plays Mahler 5

The much sought-after Portuguese conductor Nuno Coelho will lead the National Youth Orchestra this summer. He combines two powerful excerpts from Wagner's Parsifal with Mahler's overwhelming Fifth Symphony. The poignant Adagietto from this masterpiece is an intimate declaration of love to Mahler's future wife, the beautiful Alma.
