Patricia Kopatchinskaja unleashes Shostakovich’s First Violin Concerto: explosive, uncompromising, and raw to the core.
This programme comes with a warning: beware, explosive material. Patricia Kopatchinskaja makes music with intense expressivity. She colours outside the lines—praised by many, criticised by some. Those seeking pure tonal beauty might be better off staying at home when she performs Shostakovich’s searing First Violin Concerto. But for those who want music that cuts to the bone, this is a rare opportunity—one night only in the Netherlands.
