Music review: Cumnock Tryst: Colin Currie & Scottish Ensemble
IT’S good to get the audience involved and that’s exactly what Jonathan Morton, director of the Scottish Ensemble, did in this opening concert of the fourth annual Cumnock Tryst Festival. “There’s a “C” that drones all the way through Purcell’s quirky Fantasia on One Note”, he told us. “Do hum along.” The capacity crowd obliged, embracing it like a ritualistic Zen moment.
