This will be followed by the brilliant young Russian Violinist Alexander Sitlovetskys performance of Sibelius etheral Violin Concerto. In the second half we will have the rare opportunity to hear the grand and opulent Symphony No. 3 by Saint Saens, known as the Organ Symphony because of its use of the organ as a central element of the symphony.
