Afternoon Performance: Stravinsky and the piano…
City Halls
Glasgow
Scotland

Tickets: £7.00-£9.00
Steven Osborne piano
Ilan Volkov conductor
BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra



The BBC SSO and Principal Guest Conductor Ilan Volkov have a glowing reputation for their interpretations of music by Stravinsky; they conclude this short season of Afternoon Performance concerts with an all Stravinsky programme. Leading Scottish pianist Steven Osborne gives a rare performance of Capriccio, the piano concerto which Stravinsky wrote for himself to play. The bubbling, rhythmic energy of the Concerto for piano and wind contrasts well with Stravinsky's orchestration of a waltz by Chopin, and the programme also includes the composer's neo-classical string concerto.



Igor Stravinsky : Song of the Volga Boatmen
Igor Stravinsky : Concerto in D for string orchestra
Igor Stravinsky : Capriccio for piano and orchestra

Nicholas Collon conductor
BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra



As part of the 75th birthday celebrations for Philip Glass, the BBC SSO gives the UK Premiere of the composer's Sixth Symphony, an impassioned setting of Allen Ginsberg's protest poem, Plutonian Ode, an outcry against nuclear contamination and pollution. The symphony follows an arc from outrage and condemnation to spiritual and personal transformation. Conducted by Nicholas Collon, Principal Conductor of the Aurora Orchestra, it is preceded by Richard Strauss's epic tone-poem of decay and rebirth, Death and Transfiguration.



Edward Elgar : Sospiri - for harp and string orchestra
Richard Strauss : Tod und Verklärung (Death and Transfiguration)
