Glasgow Cathedral Festival, Cumnock Tryst & ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Proms

Jamie celebrates the best in classical musical from Scotland and beyond, including a performance by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ SSO and a look at the Cumnock Tryst & Glasgow Cathedral Festival.

Jamie MacDougall hears from composer Taylor Scott Davis ahead of his appearance at this year's Cumnock Tryst festival, where his piece Magnificat will be getting its Scottish premiere. And Andrew Forbes, artistic director of the Glasgow Cathedral Festival, shares some special music and gives us a preview of this year's programme. There's also a performance of Rachmaninov’s 2nd Symphony, performed by the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scottish Symphony Orchestra and recorded at the Royal Albert Hall as part of this year's ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Proms.
