Awaiting Akiko Suwanai's Sibelius debut

Akiko Suwanai makes her DFP debut with the Sibelius Violin Concerto on 8 and 9 March 2008. She was supposed to play the Dvorak Violin Concerto here a few years ago but was indisposed. She was the youngest winner at 18 years of age when she took the 1st first prize at the Tchaikovsky Violin Competition in Moscow (1990). I'm really looking forward to seeing her live in one of the great 20th century violin concertos.
