Direct from Beijing, The People&rsquo s Republic of China, the China National Symphony Orchestra will present a stunning program including the first movement of Xia Guan&rsquo s Requiem for the Earth, written for the people of the Sechuan province following the devastating earthquake four years ago. The concert will also include Sibelius&rsquo s virtuosic Violin Concerto, featuring the amazing young talent of Chuanyuan Li. Richard Strauss&rsquo epic tone poem Ein Heldenleben (A Hero&rsquo s Life) brings the performance to a powerful close.
