PROKOFIEVViolin Concerto no. 1

SHOSTAKOVICH Symphony no. 5

For its composer, Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony was a matter of life and death, and every note blazes with conviction. In the hands of Music Director Jaap van Zweden, it’s one of 20^th century music’s most unforgettable experiences. And talking of unforgettable, meet the all-star pairing of violinist Akiko Suwanai and Prokofiev’s First Violin Concerto – plus a fascinating new work from a true rising star among Hong Kong composers, Simon Yip Sai-man.

The concert runs approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes with an intermission.

*New commission from the HK Phil under The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Hong Kong Composers Scheme.
