Conducted by Yannick Nézet-Séguin, this all-Sibelius program features his most renowned and frequently performed piece, the Violin Concerto, brought to life by the virtuoso Lisa Batiashvili.
The OM concludes its journey through Sibelius’s work with a performance of the Finnish composer’s last two symphonies. Since beginning this cycle in 2018, Yannick Nézet-Séguin and OM musicians have explored Sibelius’s musical landscapes and forged a profound connection with his universe. This concert offers an opportunity to reflect on Sibelius’s legacy and influence on the language of symphonic music.
A long-time collaborator and friend of Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the violinist Lisa Batiashvili will make her Orchestre Métropolitain debut at this concert.
