Pekka Kuusisto and British pianist/conductor Simon Crawford-Phillips, invite you – and the SCO’s musicians – on an arc through time and musical styles in this joyfully eclectic programme.

The young Britten blended chamber and orchestral music in a portrait of his first love in Young Apollo, while Thomas Adès draws on English folk music in the fairytale dances he composed for Kuusisto. New York composer Timo Andres looks to outdo Beethoven in his flamboyant piano concerto The Blind Banister, and Sally Beamish salutes Frankenstein creator Mary Shelley in her dream-inspired Whitescape. To close, Kuusisto travels back to the 18th century, to the charm and elegance of one of Haydn’s wittiest symphonies.
