Tchaikovsky’s Sixth Symphony presented by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra tickets
About Tchaikovsky’s Sixth Symphony
Tchaikovsky's Pathétique is passionate and melancholy, and a dramatic statement from the composer. Equally intense, Shostakovich's First Cello Concerto is performed by the masterful French cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras.
Few composers stir our emotions like Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky.
Tchaikovsky’s Sixth Symphony soars directly to the heart. It sways, surges and then suddenly falls away into one of the most devastating endings of the repertoire. And in the hands of conductor Joshua Weilerstein, immensely human.
Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto is no less intense, with restless energy and sharp wit. In his long-awaited Sydney debut, French cellist Jean-Guihen Queyras brings the bite that Shostakovich demands.
Gideon Klein’s *Partita for Strings *is a compelling opener, written while Klein was interned at Theresienstadt.
