RNS: Nordic Symphonies @ Middlesbrough Town Hall
Olli Mustonen director/piano
Royal Northern Sinfonia
Carl Nielsen Symphony No. 1
Edvard Grieg Piano Concerto
Jean Sibelius Symphony No. 7
Conductor and pianist Olli Mustonen returns to Tyneside bringing a very personal charisma and warmth to Grieg’s striking, ever-fresh Piano Concerto, Nielsen’s proud Symphony No 1 and Sibelius’s Seventh Symphony – music of elemental majesty and grandeur, evoking the power of nature. Power, pride and untamed inspiration; this should be quite a ride!
