Strauss Metamorphosen Macmillan Veni, Veni Emmanuel Beethoven Symphony No.5 Maxim Emelyanychev, conductor Colin Currie, percussion To launch the Resident Orchestra’s vibrant new Season, why not embark on an unforgettable journey from darkness to light with the SCO and their electrifying Principal Conductor Maxim Emelyanychev. Few can be left unmoved by the pity of Richard Strauss’s deeply cathartic Metamorphosen, a profoundly poignant reflection on the destruction of World War Two. From its famously gripping opening, however, Beethoven’s best-loved Symphony - the Fifth - forges a path from compelling conflict to the blazing radiance of triumph. In between, superstar Scottish percussionist Colin Currie is the central protagonist in Sir James MacMillan’s joyful, theatrical, visionary percussion concerto Veni, Veni Emmanuel – a dazzling celebration of new life and new hope. £37.50, £32.50, £28.50, £23.50, £17.50; Disabled Concession £20, £17.50, £15.50, £13 (inc £2.50 booking fee per ticket), £7.50; Students/Young Scot/Under 26s £6; Under 18s go free Book for all six Perth Concert Series concerts and save 25%
