Fountains of Rome
Shostakovich
Violin Concerto No. 1
Violinist Karen Gomyo, “…a first-rate artist of real musical command, vitality, brilliance and intensity” (Chicago Tribune), joins the MSO to perform Shostakovich’s expressive — at times nearly demonic — First Violin Concerto. Former MSO Associate Conductor William Eddins returns to lead this vivid program, which balances Shostakovich’s fire with a picturesque stroll through Respighi’s Rome.
