Two of Russia’s great symphony composers are celebrated in this all-Russian programme: Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky. Hear Shostakovich walk the tightrope between his conscience and Stalin’s expectations in his 1945 Ninth Symphony before Tchaikovsky’s thrilling Fifth Symphony.
In between, hear Russian violist and renowned composer Konstantin Boyarsky’s 2015 Concerto for Cello, Soprano and Symphony Orchestra. Who better to perform this trio of works than the Russian National Philharmonic Orchestra itself?
