About this event

Rameau鈥檚 opera Les Indes galantes and Strauss鈥檚 tone-poem Ein Heldenleben were both flops at their premieres, yet they soon won over a public suspicious of the new. The 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra tackles both works, taking us from 18th-century France to 蹿颈苍-诲别-蝉颈猫肠濒别 Germany 鈥撎 with a quick stop-off in Chelsea, where the 8-year-old Mozart composed his First Symphony. Former 大象传媒 Radio 3 New Generation Artist Jonathan Biss gives the UK premiere of Bernard Rands鈥檚 colourful new Piano Concerto, written for Biss himself.
