Join the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and brilliant young violinist Jennifer Pike for the premiere performances of Haflidi Hallgrimsson’s Concerto for Violin and Orchestra Op 46, written specially for her. She has wowed audiences since she was crowned Young Musician of the Year in 2002, aged just 12.

Pre-concert talk (free to ticketholders) 6.30pm: Haflidi Hallgrimsson will discuss his new concerto.

The concerto is framed by two Nordic treasures: Sibelius’ atmospheric suite, King Kristian and Grieg’s Symphony in C minor.
