Eckart Preu, conductor 
Phillipe Quint, violin

Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov   Russian Easter Overture    
Alexander Glazunov          Violin Concerto      
Dimtri Shostakovich          Symphony No. 10     

Exult in the brilliance of Russian music in these three pieces spanning a century. A mysterious violin solo will open the season. A folk-like melody will charm you. Then you’ll be carried away by the fantastic colors of our orchestra playing Rimsky-Korsakov.

In the Shostakovich you’ll experience the full range of human emotions in this central work by perhaps the greatest symphonist of the 20th century. And Phillipe Quint brings his 1723 “Ex-Kiesewetter” Stradivarius for a third take on Russian music.
