Welcome in the spring with the CSO’s fresh program of masterworks by Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. Sibelius’ Symphony No. 2 is ethereal and organic, growing and evolving just as nature reawakens after the harsh winter months. His Karelia Suite opens the program and personifies the beauty of Finnish folk themes. Rounding out this program is Thomas Adès’ Air – Homage to Sibelius. This is another work with organic and expanding themes, played on the solo violin by none other than CSO’s concertmaster, Davis Brooks.
Repertoire:
Jean Sibelius - Karelia Suite, op. 11
Thomas Adès - Air - Homage to Sibelius featuring soloist Davis Brooks, violin
Jean Sibelius - Symphony No. 2, op. 43
