Whether Shostakovich originally wrote it in response to the Second World War is unknown but from the start of the famous ‘Invasion’ march of the first movement, his symphony resonated with audiences across Russia and beyond. Composed on an epic scale, the music crosses landscapes, from understated string melodies to fierce attacking brass.
Alongside, a youthful work by Shostakovich’s contemporary Sergei Prokofiev. With twinkling melodies and his trademark light touch, Prokofiev’s fleeting First Piano Concerto moves effortlessly from grand orchestral phrases to mischievous passages for the soloist.
Tickets on sale from 6th February.
