Summary

Erland Cooper drops a jaw-dropping new symphonic masterpiece, “Sula Bassana,” at the Fringe By The Sea festival — a thunderous, nature-inspired commission featuring the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and an immersive film by Lewis Gourlay. Inspired by the awe-inspiring 100,000 gannets of Bass Rock, the piece blends wind machines, quirky soundscapes, and soaring orchestration to evoke raw natural power. As the festival’s first-ever music commission, it embodies its biophilia theme, urging audiences to reconnect with the wild heart of Scotland — one breathtaking dive and dramatic chord at a time.
