SATURDAY<br />
JANUARY 29 I 8:00 PM<br />
“Ms. Glennie, as always an energetic and intensely focused performer, made the<br />
work's rolls, rhythmic patterns and hard thwacks into something both musical and<br />
dramatic.”<br />
– New York Times<br />
One of the most eclectic and innovative musicians on the scene today, Dame Evelyn<br />
Glennie is the first person in musical history to successfully create and sustain a fulltime<br />
career as a solo percussionist. She will be performing the newly-commissioned<br />
Percussion Concerto by WSO composer-in-residence Vincent Ho.<br />
We also present the return of John Corigliano’s <strong>Symphony</strong> No.1, a performance<br />
that won over the WSO audience, plus a second world premiere of a newly<br />
commissioned overture by <strong>Winnipeg</strong> composer Randolph Peters.<br />
Alexander Mickelthwate, conductor<br />
