Gil Shaham, one of the most sought-after violinists in the
world and Musical America’s 2011 Instrumentalist of the
Year, performs Brahms’ popular Violin Concerto, “fueled by
the sort of energy and passion that lifts a performance far
above the notes on the page” (Seattle Times). Also on the
program is evocative music by the Pulitzer Prize-winning
composer George Walker and Sibelius’ Symphony No. 1, a
romantic work dotted with wistful allusions to his Finnish
homeland.
