Work: The Fiddlers

Scottish Ensemble’s “Nordic Nights” programme at St John's Kirk in Perth was lively and passionate mixing old and new pieces.

A well conceived thematic programme which made for a delightful evening from an eager, young orchestra. We were welcomed into Cadogan Hall by a group of musicians playing traditional Finnish dances in the gallery, which student Einojuhani had worked up into a thoroughly viable concert starter, which showed immediately that this was an orchestra to listen to.

Das Ostrobothian Chamber Orchester zeigt unter Oramo eine musikalische Kraft und Begeisterungsfähigkeit, die nicht viele Dirigenten aus einem Klangkörper holen können.
