Benedetti Plays Sibelius Vienna Tonkunstler Orchestra

Fri 15 Feb 2008 7:30pm at Symphony Hall

Not yet twenty, Nicola Benedetti’s reputation has risen meteorically since she won the BBC Young Musician of the Year Award in 2004. Her performance of the Sibelius Violin Concerto with the dynamic young firebrand Kristjan Jarvi, Principal Conductor of the Vienna Tonkustler Orchestra, is sure to create an irresistible frisson. Alongside the Concerto’s slow-burning, brooding intensity we have the vivacious hi-tech energy of John Adams’s music and the most famous of all symphonies, Beethoven’s Fifth, with its intense heroic struggle, culminating in a blaze of joy.
