Alva Holm in Shostakovich’s Violin Concerto
Alva Holm, winner of the 2022 Soloist Prize, plays Dmitri Shostakovich’s first violin concerto with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and young Finnish conductor Tarmo Peltokoski, who also leads the orchestra in Ralph Vaughan Williams’ sixth symphony. Two works composed at around the same time, but under entirely different circumstances.
This production is part of one or more concert series.
Stay for the bonus concert Thursday January 11, beginning shortly after the regular programme, featuring Max Bruch’s delightfully romantic and spirited string octet!
The concert will be broadcasted live in the Swedish Radio P2 on Friday, February 2 at 7:03 pm.
Approximate duration: 1 hr 20 mins
