The young conductor John Warner (27) and the musicians of the Orchestra for the Earth travel to Austria in search of the deeper meaning behind Gustav Mahler’s magical composition ‘Das Lied von der Erde’. They travel by train because they refuse to fly. After all, this is a symbol of the pollution that leads to climate change.
