The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scottish Symphony Orchestra reunites with conductor Martyn Brabbins for an evening of emotional power.

No-one who was present when the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ SSO premiered Sir James MacMillan’s The Confession of Isobel Gowdie at the Proms in 1990 will forget the impact it made – the piece showcased a new, uncompromising voice in Scottish music, which became a landmark both in British music and the orchestra’s own history. Violinist Stephanie Gonley joins for the world premiere of the Violin Concerto written by the orchestra’s founder-conductor Ian Whyte, and the programme ends with one of the most popular (and moving!) of 20th century symphonies, Rachmaninov’s Second.

Presented by Elizabeth Alker at Glasgow's City Halls on Thursday 20 November.
