Rsno's Magnificent When It's Just Seven Classical Music

AT Garry Walker's American Icons programme with the RSNO a few weeks back, there was a remarkable sight. Contrary to popular opinion, it was not the vision of RSNO bassoonist David Hubbard dressed and choreographed as the King in Michael Daugherty's Dead Elvis. Nor was it the same bassoonist who then appeared, with his pants outside his tights, in Daugherty's Superman Symphony. The unusual sight on stage that night in Glasgow was the band that lined up for Dead Elvis. Sure, it was the RSNO: a...

Van's the Quiet Man the Radio Week
