Programme Note
Step into the timeless beauty of St Giles’ Cathedral, an architectural masterpiece nestled in the heart of Edinburgh’s Royal Mile. Illuminated by candlelight, this stunning venue sets the stage for a truly unforgettable evening of classical music.
Performed by the acclaimed Piccadilly Sinfonietta, this uplifting programme showcases three beautifully contrasting works, each rich in melody, colour, and emotional depth. At its heart are two celebrated piano concertos: Beethoven’s radiant Piano Concerto No. 4 and Grieg’s dramatic and deeply expressive Piano Concerto in A minor. Both are performed by the ensemble’s artistic director, the exceptional concert pianist Warren Mailley-Smith, whose interpretations have captivated audiences across the UK. With over 200 performances a year, The Piccadilly Sinfonietta has become a staple of the UK concert scene, known for its dazzling performances and mastery of the baroque, classical, and early romantic repertoire.
