A joint concert celebrating a return of live music for students and staff at the University of Aberdeen

Two concerts for the price of one! Join the massed instrumental forces of the University of Aberdeen to celebrate the return of live performance in two programmes of uplifting music including new discoveries and old favourites.

The University Symphony Orchestra marks its own return with Sibelius’s intensely exciting tone-poem Lemminkäinen’s Return. Kaija Saariaho’s magical Winter Night provides an richly atmospheric interlude before a performance of Beethoven’s most joyful symphony: a work of great exuberance, wit and mirth.

The second half charts Aberdeen University Concert Band’s transcendent journey over the past two years, including music originally programmed for their cancelled concert in March 2020, works rehearsed virtually over lockdown, and music celebrating the present – including a brand new work by Clara-Jane Maunder and a James Bond medley to tie in with the latest film.
