Join Music Director Thomas Søndergård for an explosive performance of Stravinsky’s revolutionary The Rite of Spring. At it’s premiere in 1913 it caused a riot, and while we’d rather you didn’t rip the chairs out, we do think you’ll be blown away by this unforgettable piece. Plus, American violinist Stefan Jackiw performs Britten’s Violin Concerto and hear new music from Glasgow-based composer David Fennessy.
