Tapestry
A showcase of the SCO's 5-year Craigmillar residency
Join us for the SCO’s end-of-residency celebration, Tapestry, a vibrant showcase of the Craigmillar community’s creativity and heritage.
This unique concert celebrates five transformative years of collaboration and will feature a stunning 25-minute through-composed piece curated by Jay Capperauld.
Blending Craigmillar’s iconic songs with original works by the SCO Seen and Heard Ensemble and SCO Craigmillar Voices group, the music will be accompanied by an evocative projection by Karolina Glusiec, weaving together archival treasures and new artistic creations.
The first half of the concert will showcase work emerging from the Craigmillar community, featuring performances by SCO in Craigmillar project groups and a special partnership with Drake Music Scotland, including the live premiere of a new work by composer and musician Rhona Smith. Rhona instantly fell in love with the digital harp after playing it for the first time in 1998, and has gone on to lead a highly successful and varied musical career, working with a number of artists and organisations and is a founding member of Digital Orchestra at Drake Music Scotland.
Experience the rich tapestry of Craigmillar’s arts legacy brought to life by the SCO and the inspiring community that shaped it.
Photography and filming will be taking place at this concert - please get in touch if you have any questions on this or wish not to be featured.
