Summary
Santtu-Matias Rouvali leads the Philharmonia Orchestra in Shostakovich’s Eleventh Symphony at the Royal Festival Hall, with Seong-Jin Cho as soloist for Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto.
Why it's fantastic
Seong-Jin Cho tackles a concerto defined by those famous, crashing opening chords that everyone recognizes from the first few seconds. It is a substantial evening of music that balances this melodic Russian warmth against a cinematic symphony capturing the tension and drama of a turning point in history.
