Scottish Ensemble: 20th-Century Perspectives City Spaces & Strings

Scottish Ensemble marks Jonathan Morton’s tenth season as Artistic Director with an ambitious cultural event created in collaboration with visual artist Toby Paterson.

This immersive experience combines specially curated sets of 20th century music for strings with the present and sometimes polarising environment of Glasgow’s 20th century architecture. Intended to surprise and seduce, as well as to challenge pre-conceptions about both the music and the architecture, this event invites audiences to listen again to a rich collection of contrasting string music which will be performed in a newly created environment built by Toby Paterson specifically for this project.

Held in an unconventional Glasgow location this event runs for two consecutive nights with full details released over the summer.
