The Opening Concert presents one of the grandest choral pieces ever written: Delius' A Mass of Life. The work is a glorious choral celebration of positivity, of man’s will to embrace the rich possibilities of life and of our potential for strength, energy, pride and sincerity. Sir Andrew Davis has a reputation second to none in his interpretations of British music, delivering performances full of vivid detail and visceral excitement. Royal Scottish National Orchestra is joined by four exceptional soloists and the massed forces of the Edinburgh Festival Chorus. Sponsored by the Bank of Scotland.
