Award-winning cellist Efe Baltacigil joins Northwest Sinfonietta for a moving performance of Fazil Say’s Cello Concerto Never Give Up, a story of resilience and hope during a time of harrowing terrorist attacks in Europe and Istanbul. Ligeti’s Concert Românesc (Romanian Concerto), filled with whirling folk tunes and sounds of alpenhorn, opens the program and transports us to the Balkans. Mozart’s Symphony No. 40, the Great G minor, echoes the first half’s story of danger and hope.
