Violin Concertos

Album by Dmitri Dmitrievich Shostakovich & Alina Ibragimova & Государственный академический симфонический оркестр России & Vladimir Mikhailovich Jurowski

Violin Concertos is a set of two concertos by Soviet composer Dmitri Shostakovich, composed in 1948 and 1967. They combine lyrical solo passages with sharp orchestral dissonance and significant technical demands for the soloist, and they span Shostakovich's mid-career and late period, showing a move from terse intensity to more introspective writing.
