Seattle Symphony

Midori Plays Brahms

January 23–26, 2025
Benaroya Hall

Timothy Greenfield-Sanders

The legendary Midori, a Seattle favorite, returns to the Benaroya Hall stage to perform Brahms’ Violin Concerto, which fuses astounding virtuosic demands with unique symphonic vision — a musical tour de force for violin. German conductor Anja Bihlmaier makes her Seattle debut, bringing with her other treasures from her homeland. Wagner’s Lohengrin begins with perhaps the tenderest music ever penned. And Schumann’s feverish passion pours out in his Fourth Symphony, paired with the lush romance of Coleridge-Taylor’s rarely heard Ballade.
