SUMMARY:London, UK – Royal Philharmonic Orchestra – Ustvolskaya, Beethoven, Shostakovich
DESCRIPTION:Vasily Petrenko, conductor\nYuriy Yurchuk, baritone\nBenjamin Grosvenor, piano\nRoyal Philharmonic Orchestra\nPROGRAMME\nUstvolskaya: The Dream of Stepan Razin\nBeethoven: Piano Concerto No.1\nShostakovich: Symphony No.10\nVENUE NOTE\nThe orchestra is conducted by Music Director Vasily Petrenko and joined by pianist Benjamin Grosvenor.\nIn communist Russia, Soviet officials called it an ‘optimistic tragedy’. Shostakovich simply called it his Tenth Symphony.\nDark, tense, packed with secret messages and featuring at its centre a terrifying scherzo that might or might not be a musical portrait of Stalin himself.\nShostakovich’s Tenth is one of the greatest of all 20th-century symphonies, and few living conductors understand it more intimately than Vasily Petrenko.\n‘Shattering’ and ‘thrilling’ were just two of the words that critics used to describe his recording of the Tenth Symphony.\nToday, he probes its secrets once again, paired with a haunting Russian ballad for baritone and orchestra from Galina Ustvolskaya, a composition pupil of Shostakovich.\nAt the centre, we are joined by one of Britain’s best-loved pianists – Benjamin Grosvenor – in a very different masterpiece: the young Beethoven’s exuberant First Piano Concerto.\n
