Review: WHERE THE SHINING TRUMPETS BLOW at Jacobs Music Center
by Ron Bierman - November 12, 2025
What did our critic think of WHERE THE SHINING TRUMPETS BLOW at Jacobs Music Center? Des Knaben Wunderhorn (The Boy's Magical Horn) is a collection of more than 700 German folk poems and songs compiled in the early 19th Century. Several notable composers, including Schubert, Mendelssohn, Schumann, and Brahms, have written songs based on texts in the collection. Mahler used it for roughly two dozen of his songs and added orchestration to half of those. San Diego Symphony Orchestra Director and Conductor Rafael Payare and guest baritone Matthias Goerne selected six of those to perform in a program titled “Where the Shining Trumpets Blow,” which is also the name of one of the songs Goerne sang.
