WATCH: A snippet of MSO’s 2019 performance of Sibelius Symphony No. 2 under the baton of Maestro Marlon Chen in Shenyang, China. Finnish composer Jean Sibelius is known to be one of the greatest composers of symphonies of all time, and a cultural icon of Finland. On the 4th of May, we have the great privilege of performing another masterwork of Jean Sibelius once again, this time under the baton of Finnish conductor Sasha Mäkilä, with the support of the Embassy of Finland in the Philippines. 🇫�

Osmo Vänskä and the Minnesota Orchestra began the new year with a performance of Sibelius’ great Symphony No. 7. Don’t miss the stunning conclusion of the Sibelius Festival this week at Orchestra Hall! Tickets and more info > https://bit.ly/321azNu | Minnesota Orchestra | Facebook
