Shostakovich: 1905

Presented by Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra at Music Hall, Cincinnati OH

Feb 02 - 03 2024

Grammy-winning conductor Cristian Măcelaru joins the CSO for music of two Slavic luminaries.

ARTSWAVE PASS

Grammy-winning conductor Cristian Măcelaru joins the CSO for music of two Slavic luminaries. Cellist Kian Soltani brings his expressive and charismatic presence to Lutosławski’s Cello Concerto, frequently interpreted as an escalating struggle between the seemingly heroic soloist and the orchestra representing totalitarian authority. The acclaim and popularity of his Symphony No. 11 helped Shostakovich, who had weathered criticism and persecution from the Soviet regime, win back State approval. It offers a depiction of the 1905 Russian Revolution, from the first shots of Bloody Sunday to funeral marches lamenting those who were lost.
