Bobby Wellins and the Scottish National Jazz Orchestra – The Culloden Moor and Caledonian Suites – 27th to 30th October

Bobby Wellins’ tenor saxophone is the leading voice with the SNJO, Europe’s finest large scale jazz ensemble and this much-anticipated performance promises atmosphere, drama, spontaneous creativity and spiritually uplifting music. Do not miss it!..

Glasgow born, Bobby Wellins finds inspiration in great Scottish historical events and literature.  His Culloden Moor Suite is a sleeping giant of jazz and chamber music. An eloquent lament for the fallen in battle, it is a beautiful, soulful celebration of one of Scotland’s most haunting historical locations while his Caledonian Suite was inspired by the books by James Barke about Robert Burns, which richly evoke the sounds of Scotland’s landscape and life.

You are invited to enjoy the free pre-concert talk with Bobby Wellins from 6.45pm to 7.15pm each night.
