"Souls Never Die" is a musical journey inspired by Dante's “Divine Comedy," and is the swan song of Croatian composer and organist Zeljko Marasovich. This musical landmark weaves together the majestic sound of the pipe organ, Gregorian chants, Mahlerian orchestral textures, and pulsating rythms, creating cinematic soundscapes in an awe-inspiring tribute to the cycle of life, death, and eternity.

Initially divided into four main sections (Prologue, Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso) the composer takes the most dramatic and epic parts of "Divine Comedy" and creates an unconventional, almost cinematic musical vision of it.

“Souls Never Die” is Marasovich’s requiem, creating a lasting legacy of the late composer’s ability to fuse the mystical dimension of music with profound reflections on life and the soul’s journey.

Experience the majestic power of pipe organ, choir, percussions, electronics and a visual tapestry of atmospheric lighting and projections bringing Marasovich’s vision to life. This is a once-in-a-lifetime performance that connects past, present, and eternity.

Capping off the Mahlerthon with a massive tour de force, the Colburn Orchestra and Los Angeles Master Chorale team up on the Second Symphony. “The effect is so great that one cannot describe it,” Mahler reflected. “If I were to say what I think of this great work, it would sound too arrogant in a letter. … The whole thing sounds as though it came to us from some other world. I think there is no one who can resist it. One is battered to the ground and then raised on angel’s wings to the highest heights.”
