NSO: Shostakovich 50

‘Earthy, powerful, passionate’ (New Listener) John Storgårds is renowned for his interpretations of Scandinavian and Russian music.

Rachmaninov’s Paganini Rhapsody is a mesmerising musical kaleidoscope of gleaming styles with 2022 Dublin International Piano Competition winner Yukine Kuroki the virtuosic soloist.

Fifty years after his death, Shostakovich’s First Symphony still bursts with energy and lacerating wit. Ukrainian Victoria Vita Polevá’s Third Symphony is desolate but darkly beautiful, Sibelius’s The Oceanides is a tempestuous tribute to the power of the sea.
