OVERVIEW
“It’s a love song,” Messiaen said of his Turangalîla Symphony—and as Thierry Fischer leads the symphony in this 10-movement masterpiece, it is his own love song to the community he’s served for 14 years as Music Director. The work’s title is derived from two Sanskrit words that are almost untranslatable—meaning all at once love, joy, time, movement, rhythm, life, and death—and similarly, there seems to be no limit to what this mind-blowing music expresses.
