A concert of sonic scope and spectacle from the 成人快手 Scottish Symphony Orchestra and its Principal Guest Conductor Ilan Volkov climaxes in Strauss鈥檚 dramatic An Alpine Symphony, which paints a vivid picture of a day鈥檚 hiking in the Bavarian mountains.

The Alps also make their way into Georg Friedrich Haas鈥檚 Concerto grosso in the form of four alphorns 鈥� enormous wooden horns, whose other-worldly overtones also inspired Rossini and Berlioz.

The concert opens with Mozart鈥檚 Notturno, an unfinished Salzburg carnival serenade, whose four separate instrumental groups will be dispersed around the Royal Albert Hall for maximum acoustic drama.
