BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra 2 by Curran, A., Pisaro-Liu, Pritchard, A., Da (2016/2016), Direttore d'orchestra Ilan Volkov, City Halls, Glasgow, Regno Unito

Beginning in the foyer, Alvin Curran’s work will move to the Old Fruitmarket and the Grand Hall, and is written for bagpipes, saxophones, choir and orchestra and channels free jazz, traditional Scottish music and a little touch of Schumann. Alwynne Pritchard’s Rockaby for voice and orchestra draws inspiration from Samuel Beckett’s famous one-woman play, and John Tilbury is the soloist in Michael Pisaro’s new work, inspired by “the silence one feels standing in the dark at the edge of a canyon; a vastness of the space is not conveyed by the mass but by its lack”.
