Of Note for Mon., July 11, 2016: Exploring Shostakovich's Violin Concerto

“This eloquent composition [Shostakovich], pushing all bearable limits with its melancholic and dazzlingly expeditious features found a perfect match in the stunning soloist, Nicola Benedetti,” says German publication Frankfurter Rundschau.

Benedetti explores Shostakovich’s melancholic Violin Concerto No. 1 in her latest Decca release, which she describes as a piece with “honesty and transparency.” Hear it in its entirety from 8 to 10 p.m. on KUAF.
