Black Russian/White Russian

From dark to light, Justin Brown and the Alabama Symphony Orchestra will explore the contrasting works of two of the most influential Russian composers. Virtuoso Vadim Gluzman plays Shostakovich's passionate and soulful Violin Concerto No. 1, and Maestro Brown follows Tchaikovsky's troubled but ultimately life-affirming Symphony No. 5 next weekend January 4 and 5. Gilbert and I are going on Friday night, the 4th! Can you join us? Listen here Concerto No. 1 in A Minor for Violin and Orchestra, Op. 99: I. Nocturne - Adagio by David Oistrakh, Eugene Ormandy & Philadelphia Orchestra
