Patricia Kopatchinskaja Plays Shostakovich
Southbank Centre, Royal Festival Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]Explore the secrets and truths of Shostakovich’s searing Second Violin Concerto with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
‘You can only win the freedoms you dare to take’ says Patricia Kopatchinskaja. ‘The limits are in the imagination.’
And if you’ve experienced ‘PatKop’ in action, you’ll already know why she’s acquired a cult following – and why she’s the perfect violinist to lead us through the mysterious landscape of Shostakovich’s post-war concerto.
It’s a powerful counterpart to Rachmaninov’s volcanic First Symphony, conducted by Edward Gardner – the dark, storm-swept sound of a young composer testing his genius to breaking point and beyond.
A portrait of Rachmaninov as a brilliant student launches a concert of thrilling extremes.
