How do you perform Mahler “just right”? 🎻

In our latest Portraits in Music podcast episode, Maestro Clay Couturiaux explores the unique challenge of interpreting Gustav Mahler’s music—especially when the composer himself left detailed instructions and footnotes explaining exactly how he wanted his works performed.

It’s a little like Goldilocks: not too much, not too little, but just right. Finding that balance is part of what makes performing Mahler such a fascinating challenge.

Hear more from Maestro Couturiaux as he previews the music of our 2026–27 concert season—and get ready to experience Mahler’s Symphony No. 1, “Titan,” live at our season finale concert, Shostakovich & Mahler.
