San Francisco Symphony

Michael Tilson Thomas opens his final subscription season as Music Director of the San Francisco Symphony with the piece that began our love affair with Mahler. Experience the fury and relentless searching of Mahler’s high-stakes Sixth Symphony, a work imbued with impassioned expression, inspired melodies, and tragic vision. MTT and the Orchestra’s 2001 recording of the Sixth launched the wildly successful SFS Media label, and its release garnered the first of seven Grammy wins for the historic Mahler Project.
