GINASTERA Pampeana No. 3 BRUCH Violin Concerto No. 1 SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony No. 6
Young violin sensation Timothy Chooi plays Bruch’s romantic First Violin Concerto. “A miracle,” raved La Presse of Montreal. Guest conductor Maximiano Valdes begins the evening with Alberto Ginastera’s hypnotic Pampeana, a montage of dazzling Argentinian folk rhythms. To close, Shostakovich’s stirring Sixth Symphony from 1939, which prophesizes a world on the brink.
