Summary
Ryan Wigglesworth conducts the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra at Glasgow City Halls in Walton’s Cello Concerto with Laura van der Heijden alongside two works by Holst.
Why it's fantastic
Experience the immense power of the seven-movement suite that inspired decades of cinematic sci-fi scores, from the bellicose rhythms of Mars to Jupiter’s famous hymn. This performance also offers a chance to hear the rarer, brooding side of Holst before the lyrical warmth of Walton’s concerto takes centre stage.
