60THE LIST ,z'
-BT SCOTTISH ENSEMBLE
In a concert inspired one way or another by women, Welsh composer Rhian Samuel’s Daughters’ Letters forms the centrepiece of the BT Scottish Ensemble’s third tour of the season. The letters themselves are fictional, and tell the story of two recently married women who live a century apart and what they tell their families about their new-found lives. Essentially, one is happy, the other is struggling. Soprano Patricia Rozario is soloist and, according to the composer, ‘sings these pieces marvellously’. The
ensemble’s artistic director, Clio Gould. is violinist in Schubert’s A major
Rondo, and his Death
and the Maiden, arranged by Mahler, completes the programme.
