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.
