Summary
Mihhail Gerts leads the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra at Glasgow City Halls, featuring Chloë Hanslip in Enrico Chapela’s electric violin concerto alongside works by Pärt and Tubin.
Why it's fantastic
Experience the high-voltage energy of an electric violin as it trades traditional classical sounds for the gritty textures of rock and jazz. Chloë Hanslip pushes her instrument to the limit in this modern concerto, framed by the haunting stillness of Arvo Pärt and a driving, rhythmic Estonian symphony.
