Shostakovich Symphony No.7

Philharmonic HallPhilharmonic Hall, Hope St, Liverpool, North-West, L1 9BP, United Kingdom
Dates/times in London time zone
Sunday 19 October 202514:00

A great city is under siege, and as the bullets fly, the defenders of Leningrad use loudspeakers to blast Shostakovich’s Seventh Symphony, defiant and colossal, at the Nazi forces. Everything about the Leningrad Symphony is supersized, and trust us: when Vasily Petrenko conducts it, you’ll feel the air shake. This is music that’s larger than life, and we’ve paired it with an emotional and much-anticipated new concerto by Victoria Borisova-Ollas, co-commissioned by Liverpool Philharmonic and performed for the first time in the UK.
