Exquisite miniatures from a rediscovered voice in English music. Born in London to an English mother and a father from Sierra Leone, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was famed in his lifetime and much admired by figures including Edward Elgar. He wrote his lyrical Novelletten when he was just 27, partly to showcase his own prowess as a concert violinist: the result is a collection of richly imagined gems that blend captivating virtuosity and hearty richness from an orchestra of strings. Discover Coleridge-Taylor’s elegant evocations online, to complement the live performances of his Violin Concerto in October.

Part of our 24|25 Digital Season

Experience the thrill of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra in performance – wherever you are in the world. In three specially commissioned films, SCO musicians send music from Scotland across the globe in intimate concerts captured in Edinburgh’s historic Leith Theatre, bringing you up close to the players and the intensity of the music.
