Canadian violinist and Grammy winner James Ehnes takes on the solo role in Pyotr Ilich Tchaikovsky’s always-dazzling Violin Concerto in D Major, op. 35, in a program conducted by TSO conductor laureate Sir Andrew Davis. Davis and the orchestra also offer his own arrangement of a group of chorale preludes by J. S. Bach, young Canadian composer Abigail Richardson’s The Sleeping Giant, and Igor Stravinsky’s angular Symphony in Three Movements, composed in 1945.—Rick MacMillan
