Concert Information
Feel the energy, as powerhouse conductor Ilan Volkov conducts Beethoven’s 'Eroica' Symphony, and makes some dynamic discoveries.
With the two explosive chords, Beethoven’s Eroica symphony launched a new era for music – and created a world of limitless sonic possibility. So Ilan Volkov and the Â鶹ÊÓƵAV Scottish Symphony Orchestra pair it with three dazzlingly inventive new pieces in an evening drawing inspiration from Volkov's renowned Tectonics Festival in Reykjavik and Glasgow.
Choir seats will be unavailable due to the nature of this performance.
Pre-concert conversation at 6:15pm with Ilan Volkov. This conversation will be signed by a British Sign Language Interpreter.
