Detroit Symphony Orchestra | SEA SCENES: SIBELIUS & BRITTEN - Saturday Oct. 19 @detroitsymphony | Uploaded September 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
The sea inspires high-risk, high-reward music-making. Newly appointed DSO Principal Guest Conductor Tabita Berglund, “one of Europe’s greatest promises” ("Helsingin Sanomat," Finland) leads sea-inspired scenes by Benjamin Britten plus Jean Sibelius’s take on a Finnish epic. Pekka Kuusisto, who “surely has the most personal sound of any classical violinist now alive,” ("The Telegraph," London), plays a new concerto by Grammy Award-nominated composer Anna Clyne.
