With more than 130 concerts during its annual season, the Orquestra de São Paulo (OSESP) is considered the most outstanding orchestra in Latin America and has become the barometer of quality and excellence in the fields of art, culture, and education in Brazil.
Maestro Kazem Abdullah, quickly becoming one of the most watched young American conductors on the scene today, leads the orchestra in a program which includes Brahms' Symphony No. 2 and a world premiere performance of a new
percussion concerto by Brazilian composer, Marlos Nobre. Dame Evelyn Glennie is the first person in musical history to successfully create and sustain a full-time
career as a solo percussionist and one of the most eclectic and innovative musicians on the scene today.
