RSNO 11:12 Season Denève conducts Rite of Spring

Glasgow Royal Concert Hall : Main Auditorium

 Please Note: This is a past event event.

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

With a sultry flute solo, Claude Debussy’s Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune opened an astonishing new world for western music. Two decades later, Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring blew that world sky-high – and audiences rioted! We don’t expect riots tonight, but one thing’s for sure: Stéphane Denève and the RSNO should deliver some serious voltage. Samuel Barber’s enthralling Violin Concerto will be the calm before the storm, and few play this piece quite as beautifully as James Ehnes.

Pre-concert talk 6.45pm John Poulter (RSNO Associate Principal Percussion)
