Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony

Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony came to him one summer night in the ruins of Holyrood. A stirring musical portrait of Scotland, expect big tunes, rich orchestration and whole worlds of emotion. And who better to paint it today than Jörg Widmann: livewire conductor, dazzling composer and clarinettist extraordinaire? Every one of those talents is on display tonight, and trust us, you simply have to hear him for yourself.
