Violinist Adé Williams takes the stage for Sibelius’ Violin Concerto in D minor—a piece of staggering intensity and beauty. With performances described as “stunning” by The New York Times, Williams is a force of nature whose playing radiates energy, emotional depth, and connection.
A Stradivari Society recipient and graduate of the Curtis Institute of Music, she’s performed at the White House, Carnegie Hall, and with top ensembles across the globe. Now, she brings her star power to Olympia for the very first time.
Also on the program: Gabriela Lena Frank’s evocative Elegía Andina, a musical tribute to her Peruvian heritage that pulses with vibrant rhythms and heartfelt nostalgia. We close with Brahms’ Symphony No. 1, a monumental work of emotional grandeur and symphonic triumph.
Let your spirit soar as we kick off 2026 with passion, purpose, and a reason to CELEBRATE.
