Concert Information

Today’s concert is set to capture the very best of Finland and of course, Sibelius, as we celebrate what would have been his 150th birthday.

Carlos Miguel Prieto conducts one of Sibelius’s masterpieces, plus a stunning pair of works from living Finish masters. The programme opens with a selection from Sibelius’s Lemminkäinen - the Finnish Karavela myths.

The orchestra also performs Saariaho’s major work for flute L'aile du songe, played today by the talented flautist, Adam Walker. It concludes with the spiritual Einojuhani Rautavaara’s Symphony No. 7 subtitled “Angel of Light”.
