Join Maxim Emelyanychev at the keyboard for a sophisticated afternoon of Gallic wit with some of the SCO’s world-renowned wind soloists, in music much-loved and lesser-known.
Principal Flautist André Cebrián delivers the ancient incantations of Jolivet’s dazzling flute showpiece 'Chant de Linos', while Principal Clarinettist Maximiliano Martín is soloist in the sensual harmonies of Debussy’s dreamy 'First Rhapsodie'.
Françaix sends up high-class restaurant music in his deliciously sardonic L’heure du berger, while Poulenc offers plenty of musical high-jinks to close in his perky Sextet.
