Indulge yourself with this intoxicating program from Russia! Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No. 1 sits at the top of the concerto repertory and pianist Anastasia Solomatina will dazzle audiences with her energy and technical flair. Vasily Kalinnikov’s life was cut short by illness but not before he wrote his magnificent symphony in G minor. If you are a fan of Tchaikovsky’s symphonies then you will love this hidden jewel from the Russian repertory. Dmitri Shostakovich’s Festive Overture will open the program with rousing brass fanfares and spectacular color.
