A dear place

And so it was that Robin Ticciati conducted the Orchestra in Strathpeffer Pavilion, a year after he made his debut with the SCO in this lovely venue. It was a hot evening, so we left all the patio doors down the side of the hall wide open, allowing Faure, Haydn, Berlioz and Poulenc to drift out into the village.

Talking to the audience during the concert, Robin said that Strathpeffer is particularly dear to him, as it was his very first concert with the SCO, and how nice it is to be back again with the band.

We took the opportunity to do some filming during the rehearsal (pic below), filmed by our sponsors SATV, and also grabbed 5 minutes with Robin to ask him about what the future holds for the SCO - you'll be able to watch some of this footage on our new website (currently undergoing rebuild and redesign) from September.
