Programme

ESCAPE INTO UNRESTRAINED JOY.

UPDATE: We are sorry to announce that Sir Mark Elder is indisposed and will not be conducting tonight at Glasgow City Halls. We are most grateful to Martyn Brabbins who steps in at short notice to conduct the programme as originally advertised.

"Whatever he plays, whatever he does, Federico Colli compels attention鈥 wrote one critic about the pianist. 鈥淗is beautifully light touch and lyrical grace make the music shine鈥 said another. But you don鈥檛 have to take their word for it, because today Colli takes centre stage with one of the world鈥檚 most respected conductors to play both of Shostakovich鈥檚 Piano Concertos in one sparkling concert. The First finds Colli playing energetic musical games with a rising star, trumpeter Matilda Lloyd. The second 鈥 written for Shostakovich鈥檚 teenage son 鈥 is music of irresistible melody and exuberant wit.

This concerts ends at approximately 9:15pm.
