‘Colours dance, moods swing and Chen’s artistry blazes,’ says The Times, but you don’t need to take their word for it – come and hear for yourself as the RSNO welcome dynamic young superstar of the violin, Ray Chen, back to Scotland. Together with Music Director Thomas Søndergård, he braves the fire and ice of Sibelius’ Violin Concerto. First, though, there’s pure enchantment from Finnish composer Lotta Wennäkoski and afterwards the songs, dances and Czech sunshine of Dvořák’s joyous Sixth Symphony.
