Finnish conductor Susanna Mälkki returns to the BSO podium with a widely varied program, and is joined by German cellist Alban Gerhardt for the American premiere of the Korean-German composer Unsuk Chin's Cello Concerto, written for Gerhardt. Haydn's Symphony No. 59 in A major, nicknamed "Fire" has never been performed by the BSO. The Finnish composer Sibelius's Symphony No. 5 is one of the composer's best known, a majestic masterpiece completed in 1919.
