A concert for peace with the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra; Santtu-Matias Rouvali, conductor; and Ava Bahari, violin.
Following her debut with the Symphony Orchestra, Gothenburg residents have welcomed award-winning violinist Ava Bahari into their hearts. She is now Artist in Residence for the 2024–2025 season. We hear Stravinsky’s neoclassical and playfully melodic violin concerto, in which each movement begins with a striking chord that seems to say: Listen up – we’re starting!
Meet the mythical hero Lemminkäinen in Sibelius’ tone poem, one of his major masterpieces. Sibelius was inspired by Finland’s national epic, the Kalevala, and had planned to compose an opera, but found that it suited him better to portray this hero in a series of tone poems.
It is always special to get to see a premiere performance. This concert begins with a newly written overture: Finnish composer Max Savikangas’ War or Peace. The music was commissioned by the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, led by chief conductor Santtu-Matias Rouvali.
