Mahler’s philosophy was that “a symphony must be like the world; it must embrace everything.” For Thierry Fischer’s final statement as Music Director, there could be nothing more fitting than the monumental Symphony No. 3—in collaboration with The Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square and The Madeleine Choir School—contemplating nature, humanity, spirituality, and love, and ultimately resolving in peace, calm, and quiet.

MESSIAEN: Turangalîla Symphony “It’s a love song,” Messiaen said of his Turangalîla Symphony—and as Thierry Fischer leads the symphony in this 10-movement masterpiece, it is his own love song to the community he’s served for 14 years as Music Director. The work’s title is derived from two Sanskrit words that are almost untranslatable—meaning all at once love, joy, time, movement, rhythm, life, and death—and similarly, there seems to be no limit to what this mind-blowing music expresses.
