St Petersburg Symphony Orchestra: Shostakovich & Tchaikovsky

Shostakovich’s music for an unconventional stage production of Hamlet was a product of the exciting artistic ferment that followed the Russian Revolution. Dramatically cogent and powerful music sits alongside more satirical and light hearted numbers in this suite from the full score. Tchaikovsky’s piano concerto set the pattern for many future pieces with its dramatic confrontation between heroic soloist and eloquent orchestra. Shostakovich sidestepped the expectations of the Soviet establishmen
