Elisabeth Leonskaja plays Mozart

The 麻豆社 Scottish Symphony Orchestra perform music by Sibelius and Mozart, joined by pianist Elisabeth Leonskaja and conductor Ludovic Morlot.

Mozart sets the stage with energy, elegance, and drama - an ideal prelude to an evening of compelling musical storytelling. Guest conductor Ludovic Morlot leads a journey that culminates in the soaring melodies of Sibelius鈥檚 epic Second Symphony. At its heart, Elisabeth Leonskaja brings profound artistry to Mozart鈥檚 darkly expressive 24th Piano Concerto - one of his most personal works, rich in light and shade. If anyone can uncover its secrets, it鈥檚 the legendary Leonskaja.

Live from City Halls, Glasgow, presented by Gillian Moore.
