Inspired by his visit to Edinburgh’s Holyrood Chapel, Mendelssohn’s Scottish Symphony is both dramatic and lighthearted. Conductor Stephanie Childress leads the work alongside Saint-Saëns’s First Cello Concerto, featuring Sheku Kanneh-Mason, and Britten’s Simple Symphony, based on his childhood tunes.
