OUR FIRST CONCERT OF THE NEW SEASON

HER FIRST IN BRITAIN FOR FIVE YEARS

The SCO new season strikes up on a tremendous note . . . a high note that will be sustained through the months and concerts to come.

Making her first British concert performance for 5 years, the legendary and celebrated soloist Dame Joan Sutherland will be singing Arias by Verdi, Handel, and Donizetti (including the Mad Scene from Lucia di Lammermore) in what promises to be a stunning Operatic Gala.

With the baton in the very capable hands of Richard

Bonynge, this is a concert that no serious music-lover will want to miss. Theatre Royal, Glasgow (first) on Sunday 4 October to be followed by Usher Hall, Edinburgh on Wednesday 7 October. (The Royal Bank Concert). ,

Make sure to be there—book now!

The SCO new season—our first season with new Principal Conductor Jukka-Pekka Saraste—will play on through a feast of musical highlights which include Christmas with The King's Singers, Pinchas Zukerman playing the Beethoven Violin Concerto and an evening with Stuart Burrows.
