On August 2nd, 2026, Casa da Música presents Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 2, 'Resurrection'. This performance features one of Mahler's most significant works, a large-scale choral symphony that explores themes of life, death, and redemption. The composition, completed in 1894, is known for its expansive orchestration and the integration of vocal soloists and a choir in its final movements.

Attendees can expect a substantial classical music event, with the symphony typically lasting around 80 to 90 minutes. The work's emotional arc progresses from somber introspection to a triumphant conclusion, delivered by a full orchestra, soloists, and chorus.
