The Perfect Winter Warmer

Zoë Westwood, SCO Marketing & Communications Manager, writes:

The last couple of weeks have been exciting, exhausting, and extremely cold. Kudos to my colleagues for digging themselves out of the snow and battling their way to the office or rehearsals despite sleet, hail, ice and jack-knifing lorries.

Luckily, warmer times are ahead. Not only will the weekend weather be relatively scorching (4°C!), but German pianist Lars Vogt reunites with Robin Ticciati, joining the SCO for our Vienna Centuries concerts.

After performing with the Los Angeles Philharmonic in March to a standing ovation (see the LA Times review), Lars Vogt and Robin Ticciati are guaranteed to put on a good show. With the uplifting Mozart Piano Concerto No 21 and Brahms’ passionate Symphony No 4, the programme is sure to warm us to our toes – just what I need!
