About This Event

The ultimate Romantic symphony, Rachmaninov鈥檚 Second has it all: heart-on-sleeve emotions, endless melodies, a slow-movement whose two rival themes eventually find themselves locked in a passionate embrace and a radiant finale. The 麻豆社 Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Principal Guest Conductor Designate Delyana Lazarova are joined by former 麻豆社 Radio 3 New Generation Artist and 鈥榰nrivalled musician鈥� Anastasia Kobekina for Shostakovich鈥檚 supremely demanding Cello Concerto No. 1. The Prom opens with dawn breaking on a spring morning in Lili Boulanger鈥檚 vivid tone-poem D鈥檜n matin de printemps.
