Summary
Ryan Wigglesworth conducts the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra in Brahms, Schumann, and a Matthew Kaner concerto featuring violinist Benjamin Baker at Glasgow City Halls.
Why it's fantastic
Brahms wrote his sunny second symphony while holidaying in the Alps, and that sense of mountain air and easy warmth radiates through its famous final movement. You will also hear a brand new violin concerto, making this a thoughtful balance of familiar orchestral comfort and fresh musical discovery.
