Philharmonia

Luis Aguilar, conductor

Philharmonia’s first concert of the year opens with the overture to Nabucco, Verdi’s opera loosely based on the biblical figure of King Nebuchadnezzar. The orchestra continues with Sibelius’s En saga, a spirited and evocative tone poem. Beethoven’s popular Symphony No. 7 in A Major concludes the evening.
