Concert: The Music Shed at 120

This Norfolk Chamber Music Festival concert celebrates the 120th birthday of the historic redwood and cedar Music Shed by featuring composers who visited Norfolk and performed on its stage: Jean Sibelius, who was commissioned by the Norfolk Music Festival to write his orchestral tone poem The Oceanides; Sergei Rachmaninoff, who performed his own second piano concerto on the Shed stage, and the composer Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, whose violin concerto had its world premiere in the Shed.
