Review: The Strauss Collection – Scottish Opera ★★★ Richard Strauss in Concert - Glasgow and Edinburgh At Glasgow’s Theatre Royal and Edinburgh’s Usher Hall, the Orchestra of Scottish Opera, under Stuart Stratford’s baton, recently delivered a concert of Richard Strauss excerpts showcasing musical precision and vocal strength. Drawing from Ariadne auf Naxos, Arabella, and Der Rosenkavalier, the performance leaned on the ensemble’s orchestral clarity and a standout cast to explore Strauss’s operatic range.

"...an excellent cast and orchestra pay such delightful homage to Strauss." The audience might have been thin, but Scottish Opera still put on a solid show.
