Lorenza Borrani Director / Violin
Max Mandel Viola
Leader of the Chamber Orchestra of Europe since 2008, Lorenza Borrani made a big impression directing Beethoven at her SCO debut last Season. She and SCO Principal Viola Max Mandel take to the spotlight in what many consider Mozart’s finest creation: the Sinfonia Concertante, K364. The composer no doubt had himself in mind for one of the piece’s solo parts, and the music’s elegant refinement conceals deep emotions of melancholy and joy.
Borrani closes the captivating programme with the vigour and optimism of Schumann’s ‘Spring’ Symphony, written during a rush of young love. To open, a brand new wind dectet inspired by the wonders of Gaelic hymns, incantations and lore by Associate Composer Jay Capperauld.
