NOCTURNAL creatures generally have a highly developed sense of hearing and sight. This performance of night music invites the audience to explore how their senses respond to light and sound after dark. 

Enterprise Music Scotland have commissioned Judith Weir to compose a New Work for violin & cello duo.

This new music will be the centrepiece of a performance event 'Nocturnal', working in collaboration with lighting designer, Kai Fischer.
