Colorado Music Festival Opening Concert: Himari Plays Sibelius & Tchaikovsky 5

Description

The 2026 Festival opens with a once-in-a-generation violinist: Himari, a 14-year-old phenomenon who has already collected substantial awards and recognition, performs Sibelius’ Violin Concerto, full of Nordic snow and moody skies. Just as Sibelius invokes his native Finland, Tchaikovsky’s dramatic Fifth Symphony is infused with Russian colors. Composer Carter Pann also unveils a brand new piece of music to celebrate the start of the Festival season. Peter Oundjian, conductor Himari, violin Carter Pann: I Remember Chris (world premiere) Sibelius: Concerto for Violin Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 5
