The ±«Óãtv SSO In The North East of Scotland - Part One

Celebrating Scotland’s classical world, Jamie MacDougall highlights the work of the ±«Óãtv Scottish Symphony Orchestra in concert and other Scottish artists and ensembles.

Jamie MacDougall shares the ±«Óãtv Scottish Symphony Orchestra in concert from Aberdeen’s Music Hall, performing Tchaikovsky’s dramatic Hamlet: Fantasy Overture. We hear Bach’s iconic solo cello suite No 1 in G major played by cellist Philip Higham and Bartok’s unique take on a concerto for a full symphony orchestra! Plus a chance to hear Nicola Benedetti play music written specially for her by jazz legend Wynton Marsalis, an astounding feat that blends the power and playfulness of jazz with classical form and style.
