A concert featuring either of these two living legends, 2015 Polar Music Prize-winner Evelyn Glennie and the "Paganini of the trombone," Christian Lindberg, is an event of major musical electricity. Bring them together for a brand new double concerto by Lindberg himself, and double sparks are set to fly. Alongside Beethoven’s majestic Eroica symphony, there will also be solo showcases for trombone and percussion that will further display the charisma of these two force-of-nature performers.
