Dmitri Shostakovich: Violin Concerto No. 1

The haunting sound of Leonidas Kavakos’ 1734 “Willemotte” Stradivarius will be on full display in Shostakovich’s First Violin Concerto, a challenging showpiece raging with raw fury and dark humor. Don’t miss the Greek virtuoso’s much-anticipated return as Gianandrea Noseda conducts the sublime concerto along with Bruckner’s striking Symphony No. 6
