Elise Baraud
Academy of Great St. Mary's Orchestral Concert
Sat 8 June 2019
Great St. Mary's, The University Church
Shostakovich’s tenth symphony is truly a great work worthy of its elevated position in the musical canon. This ‘tour de force’ was first performed in 1953, the same year as the death of Stalin. The first movement is extensive and shows a brilliance of both development and orchestration. From the opening dreamy but unsettling theme in the basses, the listener (and performer) are taken on a journey that is full of reflection exuberance and energy. (Adam Pounds)
