Dvořák 7 & Avi Avital by Beethoven, Higdon, Dvořák, lø. 20 jan. 2024, Fra (2024/2024), Dirigent Tianyi Lu, Manitoba Centennial Concert Hall, Winnipeg, Canada

The first mandolin soloist to be nominated for a classical Grammy®, Israeli prodigy Avi Avital is a Vancouver fan favourite. He returns with a rare Canadian performance of Pulitzer prize-winning composer Jennifer Higdon’s new Mandolin Concerto, written expressly for Avital. Plus, the VSO performs Beethoven’s dramatic Coriolan Overture, and Dvořák’s rhapsodic Symphony No. 7, under the baton of internationally-acclaimed dynamo Tianyi Lu.
