Amjad Ali Khan is a musical superstar worldwide.
His name is synonymous with the sarod, the lyrical stringed instrument of which he is a master. It has a beautiful tone akin to the human voice.
Each year Khan’s global audience runs to millions. As well as composing and performing, he is something of a musical ambassador: he and conductor David Murphy have been working with members of the SCO to find a common language between East and West – and this new piece is the fruit.
6:30pm Pre-concert talk (free to ticket holders): David Murphy and players from the SCO LAB explore Beethoven and Indian rhythms.
