LSO and Gergiev perform an all-Russian programme of Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky

Hannah Gill, 16th May

There was much to enjoy in this evening's concert by the LSO, who were performing this programme for the second time this week. The two piano concertos of Shostakovich were suitably contrasted - though neither takes itself too seriously, the Second is lighter in character, with a tender slow movement to rival the popular concertos of Rachmaninov.
