Discovering it in this performance by the ever charming and irrepressibly lyrical Thodoros Tzovanakis is sure to be a highly worthwhile experience. Mendelssohn's Scottish Symphony, which starkly captures Scotland's grey, melancholy and often wild landscape and the range of emotions it gives rise to, is at the heart of the concert.
