Lucerne Festival 2017: Long Yu conducts Tchaikovsky and Shostakovich

Synopsis

For the first time ever, a Chinese symphony orchestra is performing at Lucerne Festival. If yet more evidence that classical music has long since become a global language were needed, it would be this appearance by the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra under music director Long Yu. Their concert is dedicated to Russian composers, among them Tchaikovsky whose immortal Violin Concerto is performed by one of the leading virtuosos of our time: Maxim Vengerov and Shostakovich's Symphony No. 5.
