Scottish Chamber Orchestra: Season 11/12 Romantic Love Stories

City Halls : Grand Hall

 Please Note: This is a past event event.

Don't worry we have plenty more current events to choose from.

Secret love stories lie hidden here as Robin Ticciati continues his season-long pairing of Berlioz and Schumann. Berlioz’s ultra-Romantic songs were first orchestrated for his mistress, the singer Marie Recio. Schumann’s symphony pays tribute to the composer’s devoted wife Clara by including a melody which sets the phrase “Take, then, these songs of mine “ from Beethoven’s love songs, An die ferne geliebte. To open, music by one of Berlioz’s idols – Gluck, in tempestuous mode.

Pre-concert talk at 6.30pm
