Shostakovich called his Fifth Symphony ?a Soviet artist?s response to just criticism?, but every note tells a much darker truth. From its savage opening to final, blazing chords, this is music that really is a matter of life and death. It?ll make an explosive finish to a concert that begins with Roussel?s whirlwind?Bacchus and Ariane?(fast becoming a Domingo Hindoyan signature following the release of his critically-acclaimed first album in 2022) and stars powerhouse pianist ? and the 2021 Leeds International Piano Competition winner ? Alim Beisembayev, in a gorgeous new concerto by the Jamaican-born British composer Eleanor Alberga.\n Eleanor Alberga?Piano Concerto?(world premiere) is being supported by the?Vaughan Williams Foundation.\n
