A Russian evening awaits us, in the romantic and tragic humanism of Tchaikovsky, and the cold fate of Shostakovich in the first half of the concert. The second half opens with the renaissance of Russian identity in music through three out of ‘The Five’ or Mighty Handful’, in an outpour of poetic and operatic expression by Mussorgsky and Rimsky-Korsakov. The program closes with a winner of this years composition competition, who designed a work which has fed itself from these great Russian masters.
