Amy Dickson wears her phenomenal virtuosity lightly, as though playing the saxophone were as natural as breathing. She has made Glazunov's captivating concerto her own, and pairs it with a very special event: a new concerto from Sir James Macmillan. His are some of the very best concertos of recent years - not least the phenomenally successful SCO commission Veni, Veni, Emmanuel - so each new one is an enticing prospect.

Pre-concert talk: 6.45pm - Composer Sir James Macmillan introduces his new Saxophone Concerto. (free to ticket holders)

Price: £28, £24.50, £21.50, £18.50, £14 (inc £1.50 booking fee per ticket); students £6
