This program of musical landscapes opens with Nielsen’s expansive poem to the power and glory of the sun. Stravinsky’s brilliant 1919 Firebird brought new sounds to the symphonic stage and announced the arrival of a composer who would change the face of symphonic music. A century after Stravinsky’s now-classic debut, Canadian guitarist Tim Brady picks up the gauntlet and launches the symphony into another new era.
7:30 p.m.: Pre-concert chat with Resident Conductor, Daniel Bartholomew-Poyser
