About This Event

The ultimate Romantic symphony, Rachmaninov’s Second has it all: heart-on-sleeve emotions, endless melodies, a slow-movement whose two rival themes eventually find themselves locked in a passionate embrace and a radiant finale. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Principal Guest Conductor Designate Delyana Lazarova are joined by former ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 3 New Generation Artist and ‘unrivalled musician’ Anastasia Kobekina for Shostakovich’s supremely demanding Cello Concerto No. 1. The Prom opens with dawn breaking on a spring morning in Lili Boulanger’s vivid tone-poem D’un matin de printemps.
