To the 90th anniversary of Sofia Gubaidulina

Moscow

Russia

Tchaikovsky Concert Hall

The legendary composer Sofia Gubaidulina was born on October 24, 1931, and in honor of her 90th birthday, the Svetlanov Symphony Orchestra performs a gorgeous tribute concert at the prestigious Tchaikovsky Concert Hall in Moscow!

Under the baton of the esteemed Vladimir Jurowski, the orchestra's program offers a thoroughly representative portrait of the distinguished composer's work and persona: incredibly demanding works full of innovation and spirituality, reflective of myriad inspirations and performed by a wide variety of instruments and ensembles. In Gubaidulina's Fairytale Poem, the whole symphony orchestra is in the spotlight; then a smaller chamber orchestra, accompanied by the incredible Nadezhda Gulitskaya, Anna Buturlina, Elena Manistina, Boris Pinkhasovich, and Elena Veremeenko, shines in Rubayat and Night in Memphis. Mirage: The Dancing Sun offers a rarely seen cello octet, and the evening comes to a close with the Concerto for Symphony Orchestra and Jazz Band, a truly unique piece that sees the excellent Bolshoi Jazz Orchestra welcomed into the fold, led by Pyotr Vostokov.
