SIBELIUS Symphony No.1
IBERT Flute Concerto
BORODIN Polovtsian Dances
Opening with a work both brooding and triumphant, Sibelius’ Symphony No. 1 demonstrates the essence of why audiences love Finland’s favourite son. Then, superb guest soloist Jessie Gu will shine in Ibert’s dazzling Flute Concerto, with the concert closing with Borodin’s intoxicating Polovtsian Dances, one of the great orchestral showpieces.
