David Sedaris is the author of Barrel Fever and Holidays on Ice, as well as collections of personal essays, Naked, Me Talk Pretty One Day, Dress Your Family In Corduroy and Denim, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, and his most recent book, Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls, each of which became an immediate bestseller. The audio version of Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls is a 56th Annual Grammy Awards Nominee for Best Spoken Word Album. He is the author of the NYT-bestselling collection of fables entitled Squirrel Seeks Chipmunk: A Modest Bestiary (with illustrations by Ian Falconer).

Since The Divine Comedy’s inception in 1989, Neil Hannon has time and again proved to be one of the UK’s best and most original songwriters. 2016's Foreverland exemplifies this, with references to everything from Catherine The Great to the French Foreign Legion. Neil says of the new record, ‘it’s about meeting your soul mate and living happily ever after… and then what comes after happily ever after. Get ready for the most historically inaccurate hit of the summer’. While not releasing a record since 2010’s Bang Goes The Knighthood, Neil Hannon has certainly kept himself busy. He co-wrote a second album for acclaimed cricket-themed project, The Duckworth Lewis Method, composed a choral work for the Royal Festival Hall’s newly renovated organ entitled ‘To Our Fathers In Distress’, and oversaw the transfer of his musical, Swallows And Amazons, to the West End stage.

Programme: SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No.9 SHOSTAKOVICH Piano Concerto No.1 DVOŘÁK Symphony No.9 Maxim Emelyanychev conductor Steven Osborne piano Aaron Azunda Akugbo trumpet Join Maxim and the SCO musicians for an electrifying and emotional conclusion to the Season – with one of the most cherished symphonies of them all. While teaching in New York, Antonín Dvořák was influenced by traditional American tunes to conjure the grandeur and epic vision of his ‘New World’ Symphony, an inspiring celebration of new discoveries and new possibilities. Just as joyfully, Maxim is joined by exceptional Scottish musicians Steven Osborne and Aaron Akugbo for the wild switchback ride of Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No.1, a dazzling mix of virtuoso keyboard fireworks and boisterous trumpet tunes blending razor-sharp humour and moving pathos. We start, though, with Shostakovich’s brightest, happiest, and most optimistic Symphony. Kindly supported by Claire and Mark Urquhart.

Programme : HAYDN Paukenmesse (Mass in Time of War) MOZART Requiem Riccardo Minasi conductor Louise Alder soprano Hanna Hipp mezzo soprano Julien Henric tenor Daniel Okulitch bass baritone SCO Chorus Gregory Batsleer chorus director From its request by a dark stranger to its gruelling creation on the composer’s deathbed, Mozart’s Requiem is a piece haunted by mysteries. It’s also an awe-inspiring contemplation of life’s profoundest questions, conveyed through music of enormous courage and compassion, beauty and power. Charismatic interpreter of 18th century music, Riccardo Minasi is joined by the excellent SCO Chorus and a brilliant line-up of vocal soloists. Another ambitious piece launches this concert of choral splendours. Haydn’s ‘Mass in Time of War’ is a joyful and deeply expressive celebration of peace, first heard when Austria feared invasion by Napoleon’s armies. Please note the Edinburgh concert is being recorded for BBC Radio 3, please arrive in plenty of time to minimise disturbance.
