Symphony No. 6

In his Sixth Symphony, Mahler packs maximum punch when it comes to timbres. An exceptionally large Chicago Symphony Orchestra makes a journey full of highs and lows with conductor Jaap van Zweden.

During the Mahler Nights in the Vondelpark, you can watch the concert in the Main Hall for free! Via large screen, every evening. The Vondelpark Open Air Theatre will be transformed into the Mahler Pavilion. This will create Amsterdam's most beautiful music cinema, with images and sound of the highest quality. With two stands and a covered square, the Pavilion will offer space for 1,500 visitors. There will be catering facilities where visitors can get food and drinks.
