Philadelphia Orchestra: Mozart, Shostakovich, Vaughan Williams (Oundjian, Skride) October 27, 2006

Shostakovich and Vaughan Williams
With conductor Peter Oundjian, discover the secrets of Shostakovich's First Violin Concerto, performed by the captivating young Baiba Skride. This was one of the composer's "drawer" pieces, kept hidden for several years, until he regained favor with Soviet censors. Hear Vaughan Williams in his prime, in a symphony that will stir the soul and ring in your memory long after the concert's end.

MOZART Overture to The Magic Flute
