I was indeed fortunate to attend this epic symphony performance that particular evening. It was Lan Shui's farewell concert and this made the experience more meaningful. I been following him over the years and saw how he and the orchestra developed together. I vividly remembered how he tackled the very massive Mahler's Eighth during one of the Singapore Arts Festival. For this final performance of the 2nd symphony he showed much passion and sensitivity for this huge work. His tempo was perfect and I'm sure all the audiences were captivated. Well is indeed sad to see him leaving the SSO and i wished the very best for him. Thank you Lan Shui for being with us for past many years.
I was there at the amazing concert, the best performance with wonderful singing from Miah Persson and Anna Larsson. Thanks Lan Shui 水藍先生 for all these wonderful years in Singapore! 謝謝您!
Phenomenal! The energy, the emotion, the techniques, and the maestro actually committed the whole score in memory, making this one of the best Mahler Resurrection I have seen and heard. I am so proud of the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. Bravo!!!
The Singapore Symphony Orchestra's Mahler’s Resurrection Symphony, mirrored the world’s prayers for the release of the pandemic COVID-19. Articulation of life’s events, meaningless, but to be have its own perfection beauty afterlife, after Resurrection...- Wenhui✍️
The passage from, into and the big theme 57:30 i really agree with this interpretation.. you build this bubble and then it bursts out/forward into the big theme. Many conductors like to do a little rit on theses 5th jumps in the triplets, in horns. Lan does it just a Tempo which is nice.
Thank you for your kind offer! We have yet to enable this feature, but if anyone wishes to donate, you can do so at sso.org.sg/donate - we are very grateful for any amount given. Thank you all!
I’m glad I got to watch this performance live. It was butt-clenchingly powerful in the later movements. I couldn’t help but tear up at the end. Until audio technology can replicate the full dimension of sound, this should be watched live in concert.
What an amazing performance! SSO is truly a gem of SG, my best wishes during this difficult period. Also, may I ask who's the gentleman at 40:18 (presumably part of first violins)? His name doesn't appear on the website, I don't think.
He is good guy, good conductor, very kind person...every body in the stage and all audience love him...made me cried...

First time hearing Singapore Symphony with no expectations but I was deeply moved by the genuine music making and unity in their sound. Brava tutti!
I am impressed with the quality and size of the orchestra, for a small country. From San Francisco.
An honor for our chorus to be part of this concert. Thank you!
Thank you our friends, and please stay safe in Transylvania!
What a moving concert and so appropriate for the times.We will rise again 🌈

1:24:00 is what most of you are looking for. pure musical brilliance. and was an immense privilege to have borne witness to it.
Thank you SSO for sharing this AMAZING performance. I was moved to tears and clapping at Lan Shui's farewell. What a blessing to watch today!

+1 We will resurrect(in context) from the struggle of the pandemic!!!
Joel Neo A big YES 😿
Thrilling. Especially the woodwinds and brass. Thank you.
This is really a stunning rendition of Mahler's Resurrection Symphony.
Great mahlerian Maestro!!!
We shall rise again.
Thank you very much, SSO! Rise again! Let's rise again!
amazing to see a musician performing with a earpiece stuck into his ear.
:'( I cried.... Sending love from Malaysia..
Waiting and hoping to go for the real concerts soon.
MUSIC and LOVE - what else is there to live for?

What a great performance!
Pure happiness 😍😍
Did they enable tipping? I wonder why no one donated.
It will be pretty dope if we could give back something amidst the covid period.

I was at the concert: truly touching but sad that it was Shui Lan's farewell concert with SSO.
Those 2 wenches are just awesome when they come together!!! Well done Lan - great performance!

That's Igor Yuzefovich, our former Concertmaster! Igor is now joint Leader at the BBC Symphony Orchestra - we do miss having him!
Impressive.
Wow
Great video - quality and playing. Also, that was the longest Mahler 2nd final chord ever... The conductor seems to have taken things a bit too far.
Coba Di Indonesia Ada Yang nampilin Mahler 2
I like this performance
水藍對音樂張力的表現，可能是亞洲第一吧！
水蓝是美国人。郑明勋是韩国人。
56:36 Brass Chorale...
PERFECT BETTER THAN KLEMPERER
