Beethoven Violin Concerto
with Pekka Kuusisto
HAYDN Symphony No.103 in E-flat ‘Drum Roll’
BEETHOVEN Violin Concerto
Pekka Kuusisto director/violin
We join forces again with Pekka Kuusisto, who performs and directs a programme rich in invention and charm. The evening opens with Haydn’s much loved ‘Drum Roll’ Symphony, from its dramatic timpani opening to its playful finale, showing Haydn at his most imaginative.
Beethoven’s Violin Concerto then takes centre stage — one of the greatest works written for the instrument.
Expansive and poetic, it sings with warmth and humanity, offering a profound dialogue between soloist and orchestra. In Pekka Kuusisto’s hands, expect a performance full of colour, spontaneity and emotional depth.
Pekka Kuusisto Visiting Artist Chair kindly supported by The Honorary Consulate of Finland, Edinburgh & Glasgow
