Grieg Piano Concerto

Shostakovich Symphony No. 1

About The Performance

Every great composer has a moment when the world first takes notice. For Grieg, it was the Piano Concerto, composed at just 24 and overflowing with Romantic passion. Shostakovich was even younger—only 19—when his astonishing First Symphony launched him to international fame. When genius strikes young, it sets the world on fire.
