Beethoven’s Second Symphony
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Scottish Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Ilan Volkov, perform Beethoven's Second Symphony and Ah! Perfido, with soprano Lucy Crowe, and a world premiere by George Lewis.
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Scottish Symphony Orchestra returns for their second Prom of the season under the baton of Principal Guest Conductor Ilan Volkov, with a programme that collides the old with the new.
A cutting-edge world premiere from contemporary American composer George Lewis, which blends a conventional symphony orchestra with innovative electronics, is paired with two dynamic works by Beethoven: the dramatic concert aria Ah! Perfido, sung by renowned soprano Lucy Crowe, and his hopeful Second Symphony.
Presenter Jess Gillam is joined by special guests Sheila Hancock and Kate Romano.
