About
Guest conductor Mei-Ann Chen delivers one of Sibelius' most popular symphonies and a blast of Mediterranean melody in her WSO debut. Is there music with sunnier melody and higher spirits than Edouard Lalo's Symphonie espagnole? WSO's brilliant concertmaster Gwen Hoebig reveals the music's fragrant tunes and Spanish tang with flair.
Jean Sibelius - the most original symphonic voice since Beethoven! We mark the 150th anniversary of his birth with one of his most heroic statements, the Fifth Symphony. Known for its otherworldly horn-calls and triumphant finale, it is in Donald Francis Tovey's words "Thor swinging the hammer."
