Scottish Chamber Orchestra: Autumn Masterworks
About This Event
World-Class Classical Artistry in Edinburgh's Premier Concert Hall
The internationally celebrated Scottish Chamber Orchestra (SCO) presents a triumphant autumn programme at Usher Hall, featuring Felix Mendelssohn's stirring Symphony No. 3 ('Scottish')—inspired by the composer's historic 1829 visit to Holyrood Abbey and the Scottish Highlands.
Dynamic Conducting & Virtuosity
Under the electric baton of Principal Conductor Maxim Emelyanychev, the orchestra brings unmatched transparency, period-informed vigor, and poetic intensity to the stage. Joined by an internationally acclaimed guest pianist for Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 20 in D minor, the evening promises one of the crowning cultural highlights of Edinburgh's classical season.
The Usher Hall Experience
Renowned globally for its warm, resonant acoustic architecture and Edwardian Beaux-Arts plasterwork, the Usher Hall on Lothian Road offers comfortable tiered seating, full accessibility, and pre-concert talks.
