Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony

This program is brimming with youthful talent. Davidson Fellow, Charlotte Marckx, takes center stage as she hypnotizes you into a blissful trance with Mozart’s Violin Concerto No. 4. Enjoy a world premiere performance composed by our very own Reno Phil Youth Orchestra and Davidson alumni, Paul Novak. Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony will anchor the program – written in 1937 as a defiant act to satisfy Stalin’s regime. The symphony was published with the ironic subtitle, “A Soviet Artist’s Reply to Criticism” and has become loved for is complex beauty and triumphant conclusion.
