Hear and Now - Scottish Inspirations
City Halls
Glasgow
Scotland

BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra
Martin Roscoe piano
Thomas Dausgaard conductor

An evening of new music with the BBC SSO, all with Scottish connections…

Sally Beamish’s new piano concerto is inspired by her family and the famous whirlpool at Corryvreckan; here it is premiered by its dedicatee, Martin Roscoe. Helen Grime, meanwhile, finds inspiration in a painting by Joan Eardley while Jay Capperauld’s Fčin-Aithne (a Scots Gaelic phrase that translates as ‘self-knowledge’) explores identity in modern-day Scotland.

The concert ends with the Scottish Premiere of the late Peter Maxwell Davies’s Ninth Symphony, a single movement work which makes use of an off-stage brass sextet to both ambiguously celebrate and question military music. The Symphony was hailed at its premiere as a “brilliantly crafted work” (The Sunday Times) and “indisputably one of Maxwell Davies’s most engaged orchestral works” (The Guardian). The orchestra’s new Chief Conductor Thomas Dausgaard conducts.

The concert will be recorded for future broadcast on BBC Radio 3.

(Catterline in Winter, Helen Grime’s first Eardley Picture, will be performed by the BBC SSO on Thursday 22 September 2016)


Helen Grime : Snow (No.2 from Two Eardley Pictures)
Sally Beamish : Piano Concerto No 2 'Cauldron of the Speckled Seas'
Jay Capperauld : Fčin-Aithne

St. Peter's Church
619 Lexington Avenue

Tickets: $25-35
The Dessoff Choirs

Hailed as “one of the great amateur choruses of our time (New York Today) for its “full-bodied sound and suppleness (The New York Times),” The Dessoff Choirs celebrates the holidays as part of its 92nd season. This year, it presents a trio of concerts featuring seasonal repertoire and contemporary arrangements of carols, including Handel’s Messiah, the quintessential classical music highpoint of the Christmas season; Bach’s Lobet den Herrn, alle Heiden, BWV 230, Gregg Smith’s Twelve Days of Christmas; and Robert Parsons’s Ave Maria, to name a few.

J.S Bach : Lobet den Herrn
Robert Parsons : Ave Maria
