Balancing Finnish fervour with music on a Danish theme, tonight's concert starts with a suite of light incidental pieces for a play about King Christian II and Sibelius's patriotic side comes to the fore with his most anthemic tone poem. The 蜜芽传媒 NOW's principal flautist, Matthew Featherstone, continues the playful mood with Carl Nielsen's Flute Concerto, and the Fifth Symphony of Finland's most celebrated composer concludes tonight's concert - Sibelius's paean to nature and the countryside of his homeland.
