With Tom Service.

There is a waltz theme to this performance given by the 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra as Ravel's dark poeme choreographique, La valse, is matched by the ghostly ballroom in the second movement of Rachmaninov's final orchestral work, the Symphonic Dances.

The programme also includes the Scottish premiere performance of Unsuk Chin's Lewis Carroll song-cycle Snags and Snarls, based on scenes from Alice in Wonderland.
