Rising Stars

In this week’s concerts, the SCO is joined by two young artists whose stars are most definitely in the ascendant: Czech conductor Jakub Hrůša and American pianist Jonathan Biss.

Jonathan, the first American chosen to participate in the BBC's New Generation Artist program and Jakub,  named by Gramophone magazine in 2011 as one of ten young conductors “on the verge of greatness”, perform a programme of music by Dvořák, Mozart and Beethoven.

Why not check out the video below of Jonathan playing Mozart’s Piano Concertos No 21 and 22 to get a taste of his upcoming performance:

See Jakub and Jonathan perform with the SCO in Inverness (2 May), Edinburgh (3 May) and Glasgow (4 May).
