Tonight, the Scottish Chamber Orchestra will perform one of Britain’s favourite pieces of classical music in a concert directed by SCO Associate Artist Alexander Janiczek. Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending has been voted by listeners as their favourite piece of classical music in the Classic FM Hall of Fame for four years running (2007-2010).
Pianist Lars Vogt is joining SCO Principal Conductor Robin Ticciati for concerts in Edinburgh and Glasgow this week, playing Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No 1.
