Midori’s tour with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande (February 2025)
Violinist and UN Messenger of Peace Midori is known for her global humanitarian work: At the end of 2024, Midori‘s foundation work took her to Nepal, where she was guest with her organization ICEP (International Community Engagement Program) with three young musicians. 2025 begins for Midori in Europe in February with a tour of Spain with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande – after two send-off concerts in Geneva, the tour takes them to Madrid, Zaragoza, Barcelona, Las Palmas and Tenerife where Midori will present Sibelius’ Violin Concerto.
Further highlights in spring 2025 include duo recitals with pianist Özgür Aydin in North America in March, followed by Midori playing Detlev Glanert’s 2nd Violin Concerto To the Immortal Beloved in April, first in Nürnberg with the Staatsphilharmonie Nürnberg and then on a tour of Germany with the Bundesjugendorchester at Osterfestspiele Baden-Baden, Cologne, and Berlin, among others.
Further duo performances with Özgür Aydin in Rotterdam, Pamplona and Bilbao will follow later in the year in May, as well as a guest performance with the Deutsche Sinfonie-Orchester with Dvořák’s Violin Concerto in June at the Berlin Philharmonie.
