12/13 Season Opening Concerts - YUNDI’s Tchaikovsky
MASTERWORKS A
Programme
Piano superstar YUNDI launches our season in style, playing Tchaikovsky’s immortal First Concerto. Blessed with peerless artistic gifts and musical integrity, YUNDI has become a byword for thrilling performances all around the world. His recent return to the famous recording label, Deutsche Grammophon, and his planned 2012/13 international tour set the seal on a career which has seen him rise to the very top of the virtuoso league. Vassily Sinaisky, Music Director of the Bolshoi Theatre, will also conduct Shostakovich at his most jovial: the Ninth Symphony, a boisterous celebration piece which sparkles like champagne, and the exhilarating Festive Overture which Shostakovich composed in just days for a gala celebration at the Bolshoi itself.
