The most popular of Gustav Mahler's symphonies, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen and staged by Romeo Castellucci. A very special production, which promises to stir up the audience at the Aix-en-Provence Festival.

A message from director Romeo Castellucci:
The action you are about to witness has the particular misfortune of containing images that, charged with violence, seem to be the cruel likeness of our near reality.
I imagined this work over a year ago.
No one could have foreseen this painful overlapping of art and reality, which today seems like an atrocious prophecy.
How to support today the unconscious exactness of these images on the stage?
But what to do in the face of the irretrievable that theatre represents?
It is essential to accept the pain produced by this concordance, in the light that Gustav Mahler’s Resurrection can represent.
Romeo Castellucci

Recorded 13 July in Aix-en-Provence with the Orchestre de Paris and the Choir of the Orchestre de Paris.

24-year-old Londoner Céleste has a light, almost ethereal voice, which contrasts with the vocal complexity of her songs, reminiscent of certain divas such as Aretha Franklin and Ella Fitzgerald. Both were influences that her music-loving grandfather exposed her to. While Céleste's music seems cosmic and timeless, it's also contemporary and urgent. Since Daydreaming, her first single released in 2016, she has had a string of successes. Her album Not Your Muse was recorded during the pandemic.

January 20, 1997. Daft Punk released Homework and began their conquest of the planet. But Inrockuptibles music critic Christophe Conte was scathing. 24 years, 6 grammys and 11 million albums sold later, he's had to eat his words. Daft Punk's victory begs the question: what if everything the journalist hated about them was precisely what made the band so successful?

Kowloon Walled City in Hong Kong was the most densely populated area on Earth. 33,000 people settled on 2.5 hectares of land that was disputed between Chinese and British - meaning neither country asserted its authority there. This vertical slum was a hotbed of crime, but also full of factories, cheap shops and a strong community. This is a case for Crazy Borders.

If a woman gave birth at the top of Mont Blanc, what nationality would the child be? For France, of course, the baby would be French. But not for Italy!

This really is a case for Crazy Borders!
