The Concert
Shostakovich’s Fifth unleashes big tunes and white-hot intensity, plus Beethoven’s majestic Third Piano Concerto.
The Music
Mozartian elegance and grace surround Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No 3, a work that includes moments of profound beauty, especially in the yearning second movement.
In his Fifth Symphony, Shostakovich proved his music could achieve mass appeal, as Stalin demanded. But beneath its brilliant tunes lies a darker, more sardonic work.
The Performers
Joining the LSO and Sir Antonio Pappano is Bruce Liu, winner of the 2021 International Chopin Piano Competition and one of today’s most versatile pianists.
