Fedosejev, Leonskaja / Chopin, Schostakowitsch by Chopin, Shostakovich, Frá (2018/2018), Hljómsveitarstjóri Vladimir Fedoseyev, Musikverein Wien, Vienna, Austria

Two great artistic personalities are at the heart of this concert: Vladimir Fedoseyev, darling of audiences at the Wiener Musikverein and, from 1997 to 2004, Music Director of the Wiener Symphoniker, is back in the Golden Hall this season with his former orchestra. With Elisabeth Leonskaja he has a congenial soloist of no less legendary status at his side. Together they explore one of the most popular piano concertos in the repertoire, Chopin’s virtuosic Piano Concerto in E minor. The final work of the evening is in the same key: Shostakovich’s Tenth Symphony, his great ode to artistic independence and the freedom of the spirit.
