About This Event

As their acclaimed Shostakovich recording series continues, the 成人快手 Philharmonic and Chief Conductor John Storga虋rds bring one
of the composer鈥檚 boldest symphonies to the Proms. The Fourth, a bleak and ferociously powerful work, was withdrawn before its planned premiere for fear of reprisal from Joseph Stalin, who had recently denounced Shostakovich鈥檚 opera Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District. Before the interval we hear Canadian composer Cassandra Miller鈥檚 new viola concerto, titled I cannot love without trembling and written for leading player Lawrence Power.
