蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra play Shostakovich plus chamber music from the East Neuk Festival
Tom McKinney with a chamber performance from Scotland plus the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra with Shostakovich 5 from the Proms.
Today鈥檚 Classical Live includes another chance to hear last Monday night鈥檚 Prom featuring violinist Patricia Kopatchinskaja, the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra conducted by Tarmo Peltokoski. After soothing Vaughan Williams and stimulating Schoenberg, we hear Shostakovich鈥檚 symphonic bid to save his own life in the face of Stalin鈥檚 wrath. The composer鈥檚 Symphony No. 5 is his most enduring of all, a spiritual battle in which he disguises protest as praise, creating his most bracing and powerful music in the process.
