The Hallé

Three Romantic masterpieces, led by award-winning conductor Euan Shields. The concert opens with the dazzling overture to Weber’s opera Oberon, and continues with Richard Strauss’s First Horn Concerto, written when he was just 18. Brahms’s monumental Fourth Symphony, often hailed as his greatest, grows from the simplest idea into a vast emotional journey.

Lachlan Goudie

How do you paint a masterpiece? Lachlan seeks the answer to this question by exploring how twenty of the greatest paintings in human history were created, from a blank surface to the finishing brushstroke.Beginning at the dawn of civilization with prehistoric cave paintings and ending with the arrival of AI, Goudie unveils the methods and techniques employed by individual artists, bringing their studios to life at the very moment they produced their most celebrated works.In addition to painting, Lachlan has written and presented several documentaries for the BBC including the landmark series The Story of Scottish Art for which he received a nomination from the Royal Television Society Scotland for the ‘Onscreen personality of the year’ award. Lachlan is judge of BBC1’s Big Painting Challenge, Celebrity Big Painting Challenge, and presenter of BBC4’s Life Drawing Live! This event is sponsored by No.6 The Square Tearooms.
