Berlioz Symphonie fantastique 2026/27 Season Opener BERLIOZ Harold in Italy Symphonie fantastique Maxim Emelyanychev conductor Timothy Ridout viola We launch our 2026/27 Season with a celebration of Berlioz, a true musical trailblazer. Principal Conductor Maxim Emelyanychev brings his flair and imagination to a programme full of drama and colour. Our journey begins with Harold in Italy , Berlioz’s poetic response to Byron’s wanderer. The viola becomes the voice of a restless soul, guided by Timothy Ridout, one of today’s most compelling violists. We then perform Symphonie fantastique , Berlioz’s revolutionary masterpiece. From tender dreams to hallucinatory visions of passion and the macabre, this is music that changed everything – brought vividly to life by Maxim and the SCO. Kindly supported by Donald and Louise MacDonald
