Finnish composer Jean Sibelius’ only violin concerto is a thrilling, monumentally expressive and technically demanding work. Here, it is being performed by soloist Liv Migdal, who is seen as one of the most exciting violinists of her generation and has already delighted audiences far and wide with her impressive technique and immediacy – nowhere more so than in Sibelius’ violin concerto which covers such a wide spectrum of sound. A broad palette of means of expression is also central for Robert Schumann – a composer who went on a rollercoaster from one emotional extreme to the next. His third or «Rhenish» symphony is full of optimism and a love of life, yet still has its melancholy moments. The Zuger Sinfonietta will also be tackling this significant symphonic work for the first time, and to open the evening, there will be a new piece by David Philip Hefti, one of the leading contemporary Swiss composers. His new work, commissioned by the Zuger Sinfonietta, harks back to Sibelius, Schumann – and to Zug!
