Royal Conservatoire of Scotland Voices
(Timothy Dean, chorus master)
Every performance of the Ninth is a major occasion, and with fresh voices from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland leading the famous Ode to Joy, this will be a magnificent opening to the new Perth Concert Series. But no revolution happens in isolation, and in a specially-conceived first half, Thomas Dausgaard and the BBC SSO journey into Beethoven's musical ancestry to find the roots of this music: from Mozart and Handel, back to Bach and the music of the Renaissance. Hear the Ninth with new ears!
