The Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra will stage a concert titled “Paradisiac Paean” tomorrow night.

The program will include Richard Wagner’s “Siegfried Idyll” and “Symphony No.4” by Gustav Mahler.

“Siegfried Idyll,” one of Wagner’s few non-operatic works, is a symphonic poem lasting approximately 14 minutes for chamber orchestra. Wagner composed it as a birthday present for his second wife, Cosima, after the birth of their son Siegfried in 1869.

“Symphony No. 4 in G Major,” written between 1899 and 1901, is for a fairly small orchestra by Mahler’s standards, interestingly lacking trombones and tubas.

After what is for Mahler an unusually restrained first movement, often said to have almost classical poise, the second movement is a scherzo featuring a solo part for a violin tuned a tone higher than usual. This tuning adds to the rather ghostly and other-worldly nature of the music. The third movement is slow, and essentially a set of variations. The last movement is a song for soprano that takes its text from “The Youth’s Magic Horn,” a collection to which Mahler had turned on many previous occasions.
