Around the Scottish Musical Coast: Edinburgh Festival

[Telo]

Great programming by the Scottish Chamber Orchestra earlier this evening at the Usher Hall;

• Rebel: Les Elémens, simphonie nouvelle
  Volans: Daar kom die Alibama (world premiere)
  Poulenc: Concerto for two pianos
  Bizet: Symphony in C

For many in the audience, Katia and Marielle Labèque's spirited perfomance of the Poulenc Concerto for Two Pianos provided the climax of the evening.




A man with a beard said, "Aye, they can fairly tinkle the ivories. They can come round and play my piano any time."
