A symphony ‘on the greatness of the human soul’ and a cinematic concerto collide in a concert of widescreen orchestral soundscapes. ‘Utterly captivating’ violinist Alena Baeva is the soloist in Korngold’s Violin Concerto – a work imbued with all the sweeping romance and passion of the composer’s many film scores. Delyana Lazarova conducts the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓƵ Scottish Symphony Orchestra in Prokofiev’s Symphony No. 5, a musical homecoming featuring one of the composer’s most darkly lyrical slow movements. Dobrinka Tabakova’s exhilarating fanfare Orpheus’ Comet launches the evening with a buzzing, fizzing homage to Monteverdi.
