Mahler was a dominant musical personality: composer and preeminent conductor, steeped in tradition but a champion of the new. During this Festival, his complete songs with piano will be heard, inviting a fresh look at this \u2019symphonic\u2019 composer and the enduring place of song in the musical landscape. His choices of texts, wider artistic influences from literature to art to nature and folk music, his Jewish background in a conservative Catholic city, his encounter with Freud, his encouragement of other composers and more will all be explored over the fortnight.<\/p>\n<p>Mahler\u2019s Vienna will also be placed in a wider context, with tradition represented in the songs of Schubert and Beethoven, an exploration of Brahms\u2019 glorious melodic gifts, an in-depth look at Richard Strauss, and music by Hugo Wolf, Alexander Zemlinsky, Erich Korngold, Joseph Marx and others. A late-night salon will look ahead to the Second Viennese School, including several of Schoenberg\u2019s seminal works. Study days, readings, screenings, workshops and more once again make for an exhilarating Festival that will illuminate the era.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the world\u2019s leading singers and instrumentalists will take part, including <strong>Ian Bostridge<\/strong>, <strong>Sarah Connolly<\/strong>, <strong>Katarina Karn\u00e9us<\/strong>, <strong>Angelika Kirchschlager<\/strong>, <strong>Mark Padmore,<\/strong> <strong>Roderick Williams<\/strong>, <strong>Imogen Cooper<\/strong>, the <strong>Doric String Quartet<\/strong> and members of the <strong>Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Passes will be on sale from 1 March from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oxfordlieder.co.uk\/\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en-GB&amp;q=http:\/\/www.oxfordlieder.co.uk&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1488275960919000&amp;usg=AFQjCNENMmw2UR_MIzfQAJBCgxqk9ra6ng\">www.oxfordlieder.co.uk<\/a>\u00a0 \/ 01865 591276.<br \/>\nFull Passes: \u00a3600\/\u00a3510.
