Dear Friends, Students, and Colleagues, Northrop Presents Welcome to Gustav Mahler’s epic Symphony No. 2 in C minor performed by the THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA SCHOOL OF MUSIC’S University Symphony Orchestra and choirs. “Resurrection” is a fitting work in tribute to the re-opening of iconic Northrop. The first of Mahler’s symphonies to incorporate voices and words, it is the one that set a course of grandly scaled symphonic works destined to become Mahler’s trademark. UNIVERSITY SYMPHONY In December 1934, Eugene Ormandy led the Minneapolis Symphony in a Northrop performance of “Resurrection.” Several weeks later, Ormandy reassembled the orchestra and 350 singers to produce the first American ORCHESTRA recording, issued by Victor on eleven two-sided 78-rpm discs. The recording secured Ormandy’s legacy in Minneapolis, and its commercial and critical Mark Russell Smith, conductor success installed Ormandy and the Minneapolis Symphony as respected names in classical music. Because the configuration of Northrop made it impossible for the offstage brass and percussion to see the conductor well, the stage crew devised a system of lights to assist. The system was activated by the second Symphony No. 2 in C minor ‘Resurrection’ (1895) concertmaster’s foot in time to Ormandy’s beat. The performers followed the backstage lights to remain synchronous with those on stage. Gustav Mahler (1860–1911)
