Shostakovich 8 with the CBSO

Symphony Hall, Broad St, Birmingham, B1 2EA
Boris Giltburg

About

Epic, uncompromising music forged from blood, fire and steel.
As the USSR faced the onslaught of Nazi Germany, Shostakovich poured his feelings into a symphony on a colossal scale. Shostakovich's Eighth is music forged from blood, fire and steel – massive, uncompromising, and so powerful that after the War, they banned it. But first, true romance: as the fabulous Boris Giltburg plays Rachmaninoff's glittering Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.
