At the heart of our festival theme is Richard Strauss's Metamorphosen — a profound meditation on reflection and rebirth. The program opens with Kenji Bunch's The Still Small Voice before moving into Strauss's powerful work. The second half features Mahler's luminous Adagietto from his 5th Symphony, arranged for string quintet by ACMF artist Suliman Tekalli, followed by Schubert's Death and the Maiden in Mahler's own arrangement for string ensemble — a moving and unforgettable close to an extraordinary evening.
