Crazy in love…when Hector Berlioz couldn’t win the girl of his dreams, he went for broke. The result? His astonishing Symphonie fantastique – a wild-eyed, opium-fuelled blockbuster that still sets hairs on end today. With Peter Oundjian at the helm, a specially-written choral work by one of Scotland’s greatest living composers sung by the RSNO Junior Chorus, and the nation’s favourite Nicola Benedetti playing Szymanowski’s sensuous, shimmering concerto, this is a special 125 performance not to be missed. Sponsored by Brewin Dolphin.
