About St Cecilia Orchestra: 30th Anniversary Gala Concert - Ripon Cathedral

A rare chance to hear the mesmerising virtuosity of one of the worlds leading Indian classical musicians paired with Rimsky-Korsakovs exuberantly colourful and much-loved dramatic masterpiece.

Join St Cecilia Orchestra, under guest conductor Gary Matthewman, for a spectacular concert bringing together the traditions of Western and Indian classical music. Renowned Leeds sitar player and composer, Jasdeep Singh Degun, joins the orchestra in a performance of his own sitar concerto, Arya, and the beautiful Lament for Sitar, Tabla and Strings.

The second half of the concert takes us to Persia, with Rimsky-Korsakovs musical retelling of the stories of Scheherazade: an exhilarating journey of love, intrigue and adventure.
