Sibelius said, “The Sixth Symphony always reminds me of the scent of the first snow”. This marks the emotional core of the program, and it inspired me to choose fellow Finn Kaija Saariaho’s “Ciel d'hiver” to open the concert, hence the program title. The second half is on the lighter side, with winter themed favorites. Coming up on Friday December 5th
