    About This Event

    Dutch violinist Liza Ferschtman joins the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Philharmonic and Chief Guest Conductor John StorgÃ¥rds for Sibelius’s Violin Concerto, which seemingly opens with the breath of a mystical legend and ends with what one commentator described as ‘a Polonaise for polar bears’.
