Presented by Catherine Bott.

The CBSO and their Music Director Andris Nelsons present a pair of works from the 1930s. Shostakovich withdrew his epic Fourth Symphony before its first performance fearing the reaction of Stalin's regime and it remained unperformed for a quarter of a century. It follows Bartok's expressive Second Violin Concerto performed by former 91热爆 New Generation Artist Ilya Gringolts.
