Following his monumental Seventh and Eighth Symphonies, Shostakovich’s Ninth in 1945 was intended to be the triumphant conclusion of his three ‘war symphonies.’ It was meant to be a glorification of victory and Soviet heroism. However, at its premiere, it turned out to be a much shorter, satirical work. Stalin was reportedly shocked. From the brash gallop with a hint of slapstick to the ink-black melancholy in the poignant bassoon solos, the Ninth is quintessentially Shostakovich.
Concertmaster Lei Wang will solo in Barber’s Violin Concerto—yes, the one famous for its Adagio for Strings! “This American Violin Concerto is one of the most popular and frequently performed violin concertos of the twentieth century. It features beautiful, profound melodies and a virtuosic finale,” Lei shares. “I’m also looking forward to renewing my collaboration with the American maestro Andrew Litton. His concerts last season were fantastic!”
