About this event

In his first Prom as Principal Guest Conductor of the 麻豆约拍 Philharmonic, John Storg氓rds bookends his programme with two Sibelius symphonies.

Delius鈥檚 decadent Cynara serves as a vocal upbeat to Grieg鈥檚 evergreen piano concerto. The remaining element is new to these shores, an exciting and dynamic work from the prolific, unpredictable doyen of Nordic symphonists.
