Tam Plays Shostakovich

2 March 2019 @ 8:00 pm

Renowned conductor David Danzmayr teams with virtuosic Concertmaster Terence Tam in this all-Russian concert performing the Shostakovich Violin Concerto No. 1. Written in the German-style, the concerto embodies Shostakovich’s sarcastic humour and emotional intensity. The program concludes with Prokofiev’s lyrical, reflective, yet melancholic Seventh Symphony.

Tickets are $33 – $86 and are available here.
