Treading the fine line between a token gesture and carrying a really powerful political message and winning. My @scotsman_arts review of @RSNO and Andrew Boreyko’s Shostakovich Spectacular https://t.co/Kb7TLn3ONU

What do you get when you put two orchestras together - @BBCSSO @RSNO ? My @scotsman_arts review https://t.co/xrQsgPPwKz

Ryan Wigglesworth is to succeed Thomas Dausgaard as chief conductor of @BBCSSO - See @scotsman_arts @TheScotsman https://t.co/QLPjUVuzIy

Under the assured baton of Ilan Volkov, the BBC SSO showed that they can still be one of the most dynamic and stirring bands around. My @scotsman_arts review @BBCSSO https://t.co/OrXeugR0iC

@JanisSusskind Congratulations Janis!

@MartynMcL @brianjaffa @TheScotsman Strange, isn’t it, that Glasgow - in partnership with the wider central belt - managed to successfully accommodate the 1997 World Rotary Congress of 25000+ delegates. What’s gone wrong here?

…also featuring pianist Igor Levit’s excellent new Shostakovich/Stevenson album @igorpianist @SonyClassicalUK @scotsman_arts

Right now, pianist @jeremydenk is resident @LammermuirFest usefully timed with the release of a classy new Mozart album on @NonesuchRecords reviewed here in @scotsman_arts
