Royal Scottish National Orchestra - Tchaikovsky, Beethoven, Rachmaninov

Elim Chan conducts the RSNO. Tchaikovsky: Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture; Beethoven: Piano Concerto No 2 (with Louis Schwizgebel); Rachmaninov: Symphony No 2 in E minor.

The young Hong Kong-born conductor Elim Chan has the distinction of being the first female to win the prestigious Donatella Flick Conducting competition in 2014. She makes her debut with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra with two staples of the Russian Romantic movement.

Beethoven's Piano Concerto No 2 is a great vehicle for the virtuosic young pianist Louis Schwizgebel, formerly a Radio 3 New Generation Artist.
