Gil Shaham | Violin |
Czech Philharmonic | |
Semyon Bychkov | Conductor |
In each of its three concerts this week, the inimitable Czech Philharmonic pairs an orchestral masterwork with one of Dvořák’s concertos, each featuring a superstar soloist. Tonight, the soloist is violin icon Gil Shaham, who performs the vibrant, Czech folk–infused Violin Concerto. Mahler’s Fifth Symphony follows, giving audiences a chance to experience the orchestra’s acclaimed interpretation under conductor Semyon Bychkov. Their 2022 recording of the Fifth was named Best Classical Record of 2022 by London’s The Times, which praised their “fine balance in this visionary work, a musical universe of dreams and prophecies in which Bychkov matches intelligent pacing with great-hearted warmth and sonic opulence with textural clarity.”
