Shostakovich and Sibelius

Description

Stéphane Denève, conductor 
Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider, violin 

Jean Sibelius Violin Concerto 
Dmitri Shostakovich Symphony No. 10 

“I wanted to convey human feelings and passions,” said Dmitri Shostakovich about his Tenth Symphony. This expansive work is at once tragic and unshakeable, relentlessly driving forward with a furious energy, a reflection on individuality and power in response to the death of Joseph Stalin. Danish violinist Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider returns to Powell Hall to join Stéphane Denève and the SLSO for an equally emotional performance of Jean Sibelius’ soaring Violin Concerto.
