The evening will present her music, including the award-winning song cycle Angmalukisaa, alongside Sibelius’s Symphony No. 1, showcasing the orchestra at its most delicate and most powerful.
The KSO built this program around a single question: what does it mean to belong to a landscape rather than own it?
Rooted in the BC Interior and inspired by its people, landscapes, and stories, the KSO is committed to championing Canadian artistry, elevating Indigenous voices, and making orchestral music accessible to communities across the region and beyond. The KSO believes that meaningful music grows from the place it comes from.
