Tickets "at the door" - until sold out
  1. Sea Sketches, for string orchestra - Grace Williams
  2. The Years - Anna Clyne, text by Stephanie Fleischmann
  3. If my complaints could passions move - John Dowland, arranged by Andrew Manze
  4. Lachrymae, Reflections on a song of Dowland, for viola and strings Op 48a - Benjamin Britten
  5. Flos Campi - Ralph Vaughan Williams

From renaissance passion to modern mysticism, discover the richness of some lesser-known British music in this wide ranging concert conducted by eminent English music expert Andrew Manze.

The visionary sensuousness of Vaughan Williams’s Flos Campi brings together the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Scottish Chamber Orchestra Chorus, alongside remarkable young viola player Timothy Ridout - currently a BBC New Generation Artist – who’s also the soloist in the flickering emotions of Britten’s Lachrymae, a heartfelt fantasy on music by John Dowland.

Welsh composer Grace Williams offers a British answer to Debussy’s La mer in her vivacious, colourful Sea Sketches, and SCO Associate Composer Anna Clyne unveils her brand new choral piece with its specially written text by Stephanie Fleischmann.

‘The Years’ was generously supported with funds from RVW Trust.
