    Sohmen Concert Hall
    Coming soon

When music and movement collide, the impact is exhilarating.

Experience the new Sohmen Concert Hall for the first time as Scottish Ensemble perform music for strings from memory, including Tchaikovsky’s much loved Serenade for Strings and Shostakovich’s Chamber Symphony, in a unique, personal, and deeply human performance.

Playing from memory, the musicians are unleashed through choreographed movements, devised in collaboration with choreographer Örjan Andersson. The emotional power of the music and the expressive gestures of the musicians will create an exhilarating experience that will make you see and hear these two iconic works afresh.

Take your seat, connect with the music moving before you, and hear this space come to life.

Part of Open House, a free weekend of performances and events open to everyone.
