The Orchestra’s repertoire ranges from re-imagining the classical masters and romantic greats to contemporary commissions. This tour highlights Benedetti, a treasured talent in her native Scotland, and features Anna Clyne’s Sound and Fury, Bruch’s Violin Concerto, and Mendelssohn’s Symphony No. 3, “Scottish.” BBC Music Magazine has called the Orchestra “one of the finest ensembles of its kind in the world today.”
