´óÏó´«Ã½

Ivan Hewett presents a concert from the Plug Festival in Glasgow. Ilan Volkov conducts two major world premieres of ´óÏó´«Ã½ commissions with the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Scottish Symphony Orchestra, and two new pieces by composition students at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama.

Andrew Toovey describes Ubu's Journey as "a piece for people who are passionate about all different kinds of music ... eclectic, multifaceted and filled with lots of things that really interest me."

Helmut Oehring's POEndulum is based on Edgar Allan Poe's The Pit and the Pendulum, a dark tale of a man stuck in a pit with the sentence of death swinging over him, and features a major role for extrovert vocal artist David Moss.
