The SOI Chamber Orchestra and Olga Kern will present Shostakovich’s Piano Concerto No. 1 in C minor, Op. 35, featuring piano, trumpet and strings. The concerto exudes a topical, light, humorous, satirical and eclectic personality, at moments reminiscent of a chase scene from a silent movie or a circus sideshow. Initially set out to be a trumpet concerto, the piano took precedence, with the trumpet playing a prominent, but secondary, role.
Programme:
Dag-Wirén: Serenade for Strings, Op. 11
Sibelius: Impromptu for Strings, Op. 5
Sibelius: Romanze in C major, Op. 42
Sibelius: Valse Triste, Op. 41 No. 1
Shostakovich: Piano Concerto No. 1, Op. 35
Box Office now open.
