Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky — so highly regarded for his symphonic compositions — placed himself among the greats of the keyboard with the completion of his First Piano Concerto; filled with gorgeous lyrical melodies and unmistakable Romantic spirit. For many, it has become the standard against which all virtuosos must measure themselves, featuring iconic opening flourishes and a pyrotechnic-filled finale. Venezuelan pianist Gabriela Montero lends her dazzling technique and improvisatory nature to this cornerstone of the classical canon.

Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 11, “The Year 1905”, references the First Russian Revolution, in which civilians revolted against Tsar Nicholas II, culminating in the uprising known as Bloody Sunday. Growing up in a country where democracy was a distant dream and any act of criticism of the leading party relentlessly punished, Shostakovich became a master of hidden truths, using his music as a sort of covert confessional. In his way, the 11th Symphony stands as a requiem for all innocent victims of war and violence, injustice and arbitrariness — capping a poignant performance led by Principal Conductor Peter Oundjian.
