Thomas Dausgaard : conductor



‘Music is the sound of life,’ said Nielsen. Nowhere is this truer than in his elemental Fourth Symphony, written during the First World War, as it pulses and surges with a headstrong determination, from its turbulent opening to the famous ‘duel’ for timpanists at its close. It’s a breathless, exciting climax to our Nielsen cycle and our 21/22 Season. Thomas Dausgaard, in his last Glasgow appearance as Chief Conductor, precedes it with the fleet-footed First Symphony, written when the composer was just 27 and Mozart’s evergreen Clarinet Concerto with our Artist in Residence, Jörg Widmann, as soloist.


Please note: this concert will have two intervals of 15 minutes.
