Summary

Christopher Bell conducts the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and NYCOS in works by Orff, Capperauld and Jonathan Dove at Edinburgh’s Usher Hall.

Why it's fantastic

You will likely recognise the volcanic opening of Orff’s masterpiece from countless film trailers and television adverts. It is an ideal entry point for anyone new to the concert hall, offering a visceral wall of sound that feels more like a cinematic experience than a traditional choral recital.
