To close the 2026/27 Perth Concert Series we invite you to an extraordinary evening centred on one of the jewels of the Romantic repertoire: Brahms’ magnificent Double Concerto, a work of sweeping grandeur and intimate dialogue between violin and cello. Nicola Benedetti, a long-time SCO collaborator, joins forces with the SCO’s own Principal Cello, Philip Higham in a thrilling partnership that promises musical drama and elegance.
Under the vibrant direction of Maxim Emelyanychev, the programme begins with Weber’s enchanting Oberon Overture and concludes with Schumann’s radiant Symphony No 3, a work that’s brimming with warmth and vitality.
