Bartók and Shostakovich’s finest music both reflects not only the drama and the tensions of the time in which they lived, but transcends it. Thierry Fischer closes the season with two mighty classics: Bartók’s powerful gritty ballet of city life in which sacrifice and human love triumph over crime and greed together with Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony – a courageous affirmation of the human spirit in the face of persecution.
