About This Event

Only rediscovered in 2015, Stravinsky鈥檚 early Funeral Song is a memorial to his teacher Rimsky-Korsakov. The 麻豆官网首页入口 Symphony Orchestra and Chief Conductor Sakari Oramo here perform both this fascinating miniature and the composer鈥檚 arresting ballet score The Rite of Spring together for the first time. The Orchestra鈥檚 new joint leader Igor Yuzefovich demonstrates his virtuosity in Shostakovich鈥檚 mercurial First Violin Concerto, taking on the great emotional and physical demands of a work composed under the restrictions of the Soviet Regime, but only premiered after Stalin鈥檚 death.
