Artiste: Daniel Raiskin

Structurally intricate and riddled with personal undercurrents, Tchaikovsky’s Symphony no. 5 was handled with a deft touch by conductor Daniel Raiskin. 

Giya Kancheli's stunning oboe concerto Childhood Revisited was given as a tribute to the memory of the recently deceased composer in an intriguing and enjoyable concert.

Andrey Baranov's stunning performance of Shostakovich's harrowing Violin concerto no. 1 with Daniel Raiskin and the Belgrade Philharmonic overshadowed the other items in the programme.
