A Celebration of Schubert with Raphaël Pichon and the SCO Chorus SCHUBERT Symphony No.8 in B minor 'Unfinished‘ Mass in E-flat Raphaël Pichon conductor Lucy Crowe soprano Jennifer Johnston mezzo soprano Kieran Carrel tenor Robin Tritschler tenor Samuel Hasselhorn baritone SCO Chorus Gregory Batsleer chorus director Renowned for his imaginative programming, Raphaël Pichon makes his SCO debut in this celebration of Schubert’s enduring legacy. The concert opens with Symphony No.8, the ‘Unfinished’, a masterpiece of lyrical intensity and haunting contrasts. The programme culminates in the Mass in E flat, one of Schubert’s ambitious sacred works. Rich in colour and drama, it combines soaring choral writing with moments of intimate devotion, brought to life by the SCO Chorus and an exceptional cast of soloists.
