The Radio France Philharmonic play Shostakovich and Stravinsky

Vasily Petrenko conducts the Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra in Stravinsky's Symphony in Three Movements, and Vadim Gluzman joins them for Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No 2.

Vasily Petrenko conducts the Radio France Philharmonic Orchestra in music by Glinka, Shostakovich and Stravinsky.

The concert opens with the tune of the Volga Boatman at the start of Glinka's seldom heard tone poem and ends with the first score that Stravinsky wrote after emigrating to the USA - in it we hear echoes of Hollywood. And, in between, the Ukraine-born Israeli violinist Vadim Gluzman plays Shostakovich's last concerto, written as a 60th birthday present for his friend David Oistrach. The key he chose suggests some sort of homage to Mahler's Fifth Symphony which Shostakovich had recently heard in Vienna and also to Beethoven's Opus 131 quartet.
