Mozart, Britten and Vaughan Williams

Ryan Wigglesworth and the ѿý Scottish Symphony Orchestra perform Mozart's Piano Concerto No 24, plus Britten's Suite on English Folk Tunes and Vaughan Williams' Symphony No 4.

Vaughan Williams' explosive Fourth Symphony is driven by unstoppable emotional force. This is music on the edge, written as Europe fell under the shadow of war. Conductor Ryan Wigglesworth loves to find unexpected connections. And so this concert, from Glasgow, begins with Mozart’s darkest piano concerto (with Wigglesworth directing from the keyboard) and also includes a nostalgic evocation of folksong by Benjamin Britten.
