Originally envisioned to encompass a complete sequence of Mahler's symphonic compositions, MahlerFest is now in its third cycle and entering its 25th year, continuing to present all of Mahler's performable works.

The MahlerFest orchestra's 100-plus musicians come together from across the United States and other countries, mostly on a volunteer basis, for a week of intense music-making, drawn by their passion for Mahler's music. Maestro Olson, currently Director of Opera and Orchestras at the Conservatory of Music at the University of Missouri at Kansas City, returns to Colorado each year to lead the festival.
