Mahler's Fifth - Columbus Symphony

Mahler's Fifth is one of the most beloved orchestral works ever written—a sweeping, emotional journey that builds from darkness into triumph. The Columbus Symphony will perform this masterpiece live, letting you experience its power with a full orchestra right in front of you. It's a wonderful introduction to classical music for older kids and teens, though younger children may find the 50-minute symphony challenging to sit through. Expect lush melodies, dramatic crescendos, and the kind of music that stirs the soul.
