Scottish Chamber Orchestra bringing Rossini and Schubert to Airdrie Town Hall stage
Conducted by the dynamic Jakob Lehmann, the programme opens with 'Overture to The Barber of Seville' by Gioachino Rossini.
Cracking classical music will fill the air with joy at Airdrie Town Hall next month.
The Scottish Chamber Orchestra (SCO) is bringing the note-perfect Rossini and Schubert to the stage on August 27.
Conducted by the dynamic Jakob Lehmann, the programme opens with Overture to The Barber of Seville by Gioachino Rossini, a masterpiece of bustling brilliance and comedic flair.
The spotlight then turns to SCO's celebrated principal clarinet, Maximiliano Martin as he takes centre stage for Spohr's Clarinet Concerto No. 2 in E-flat, Op. 57 - a lyrical gem of the Romantic era full of passion and virtuosity.
The concert concludes with Schubert's Symphony No. 2 in B-flat, a youthful and exuberant work brimming with lyrical beauty and rhythmic vitality - and an uplifting finale to a night of musical elegance.
The concert is kindly supported by Eriadne & George Mackintosh, Claire & Anthony Tait, and The Jones Family Charitable Trust.
It starts at 7.30pm and tickets are priced £20 for adults, £10 for people with disabilities, with their carer going free, £6 for under 26, unwaged and students, and no charge for under 18s (under 16s must be accompanied by an adult).
