German music from Glasgow's City Halls: the 成人快手 Scottish Symphony Orchestra are conducted by Dresden-born Christoph K枚nig. The glorious spectre of Beethoven energizes Brahms's First Symphony, a work whose triumphant conclusion sweeps away any dark clouds. Haydn's much loved Cello Concerto dwells in sunny C major. Johannes Moser is the soloist in this evening's performance.

And before these familiar German works, music by a 20th-century composer whose work is less well known in the UK, Boris Blacher - an interesting figure from the Chinese borders of Russia who migrated to Berlin and fell foul of the century's political upheavals. But in his Concertante Musik we can hear an unusual and compelling musical imagination at work: encompassing elements of folk music; brisk rhythmic and harmonic invention; and with a haunting, ethereal slow movement at its centre.
