Summary
Thomas Søndergård conducts the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and Chorus at Usher Hall, featuring Ravel’s complete Daphnis et Chloé and Szymanowski’s Fourth Symphony with pianist Vadym Kholodenko.
Why it's fantastic
Begin with Lili Boulanger’s crisp musical portrait of a spring morning before diving into a lush, full-length ballet score for orchestra and voices. Thomas Søndergård leads this expansive programme, culminating in a cinematic sunrise that remains one of the most colourful and atmospheric moments in the entire French repertoire.
