About this Performance
LA Phil Conductor Laureate and composer Esa-Pekka Salonen returns to Walt Disney Concert Hall for an all-Finnish program featuring some of Sibelius’ greatest hits. After an ethereal piece by Kaija Saariaho—a work dedicated to Salonen himself—the violin shines in Sibelius’ brooding Violin Concerto, an expressive and technically challenging showcase for the instrument. The concert concludes with the soaring melodies and triumphant timbre of Sibelius’s Second Symphony.
