## Details

A few of us from my **Exploring Music** group are attending the RSNO concert on 4th October at the Usher Hall 7.30pm
### *Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony starts with tragedy and ends with a world reborn. Imagine heaven and hell, joy and terror, Viennese waltzes and distant trumpets. It’s the musical experience of a lifetime – and beyond… Join us for the spectacular opening to our Concert Season and experience a super-sized RSNO and the massed voices of the RSNO Chorus perform some of the most heart-lifting music ever composed, under the direction of Music Director Thomas Søndergård.*
This is a monumental symphony. Get a taste of it performed by Leonard Bernstein with the London Symphony Orchestra in Ely Cathedral in 1973.

The plan is to meet in the **gallery of the upper tier** **at 7pm** for a chat and perhaps go for a drink to the Traverse Bar after.
**Folk to get their own tickets**.
**I'm in A13 Upper Tier**.
Hope you can join us for what promises to be a memorable concert.
I can be recognised by my distinctive nepalese hat!
My next **Exploring Music**, which is posted separately, is the 1.30pm on the 15th September at the Edinburgh Society of Musicians in Belford Road.
The first half theme will be **medieval music** illustrated with videos and vinyl. The second half will be **live music on the Steinway** from myself and invited guests.
