Evelyn Glennie<br />

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 />
