Geneva Lewis plays Barber's Violin Concerto

Gemma New conducts the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Scottish Symphony Orchestra in Brahms's Fourth Symphony and a recent work by Sarah Gibson. Geneva Lewis joins for Barber's Violin Concerto.

Gemma New conducts the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Scottish Symphony Orchestra in a concert of rich colours and luminous emotions. When Brahms wrote his final symphony he reached back across the centuries to find courage and strength as he strode forward into the storm. It's as moving as it is powerful. In jazz-age America, Samuel Barber reinvented the romantic violin concerto with streamlined melodies and all-American verve. And Sarah Gibson takes handloom weaving as her in inspiration in 'warp & weft', a vibrant, evocative modern celebration of female creativity.
