In celebration of our Festival’s Icelandic theme, we are proud to present a new work by one of Iceland’s fastest rising stars – Daníel Bjarnason. Come hear the North American premiere of his orchestral work Emergence, a piece hailed for its exquisite colours and emotional profundity. Returning to our Festival this year as our distinguished guest artist is Canada’s superstar cellist Shauna Rolston as she presents the world premiere of Vincent Ho’s newest cello concerto, City Suites, written specially for her and her carbon-fiber cello.
