Nicholas Scott performs with Les Ambassadeurs
This summer, Nicholas Scott will perform in the programme, The Highland Watch, with Les Ambassadeurs. It celebrates the influence of Scottish songs from the 1700s to the 1900s, which captivated English audiences and inspired composers like Haydn, Beethoven, and Weber. Haydn composed over 250 Scottish airs, later continued by Beethoven, who added his distinctive style. The programme also showcases Weber's romantic interpretations, illustrating how these melodies transcended traditional music and impacted classical composition.
