Pekka Kuusisto, violin
Outi TARKIAINEN Midnight Sun Variations NIELSEN Violin Concerto
Intermission
SIBELIUS Tapiola
Finland and its culture dominate Symphony Hall in this concert.
Finnish conductor John Storgårds leads the first in our Music of the Midnight Sun series, an exploration of Nordic storytelling and music.
Finnish composer Outi Tarkiainen’s vivid soundscapes prove she is a worthy successor to her compatriot Jean Sibelius; her nuanced and colorful Midnight Sun Variations that transport you to her homeland.
Finnish violinist Pekka Kuusisto debuts with the BSO as the orchestra performs the great Danish composer Carl Nielsen’s 1911 Violin Concerto for the first time.
The program closes with three of Sibelius’s tone poems based on Finnish legends, their moods ranging from sweeping power to contemplative mystery.
Friday's performance will end around 9:30pm.
