Thalia Symphony presents “Scandinavian Landscapes,” featuring the music of Jean Sibelius and Edvard Grieg, at 2:30 p.m. Sunday at Northshore Performing Arts Center in Bothell.
Thalia Symphony began in 1949 when violinist, teacher and conductor Mikael Scheremetiew founded it as an outlet for Seattle-area musicians.

In 1994, Thalia became orchestra-in-residence at Seattle Pacific University.
The orchestra operates under the umbrella of Thalia Allied Artists Inc., a nonprofit educational and arts institution, and the music department of the College of Arts and Sciences at Seattle Pacific University.
