Travel from Estonia to the German Rhineland as conductor Kristiina Poska makes her SLSO debut in a concert that celebrates a variety of European folk music. Poska introduces us to the musical shapeshifting of a new composition by fellow Estonian, Ülo Krigul, and rising-star pianist Marie-Ange Nguci shines in Mozart’s sweet and playful Piano Concerto No. 21. Robert Schumann’s Third Symphony emphasizes the vibrant culture along the Rhine River in Germany, re-imagining folk dances, bucolic scenes, and the grandeur of a cathedral.
