Tchaikovsky - Andante from Symphony no. 5

Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his Symphony No. 2 in B major, Op. 14 and subtitled To October, for the 10th anniversary of the October Revolution. It was first performed by the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra and the Academy Capella Choir under Nikolai Malko, on 5 November 1927. After the premiere, Shostakovich made some revisions to the score, and this final version was first played in Moscow later in 1927 under the baton of Konstantin Saradzhev. It was also the first time any version of the work had been played in Moscow.

Shostakovich: Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 54 - Presto

In May 1913, Sergei Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes, composer Igor Stravinsky, and choreographer Vaslav Nijinsky unleashed an artistic tsunami whose shock waves are still being felt a century later. Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring was visceral, violent, garish, primitive in its explosion of polyrhythms, dissonances, and shrieking orchestral effects.
Hugh Wolff, Stanford and Norma Jean Calderwood Director of Orchestras, and the New England Conservatory Philharmonia celebrated the centennial in this performance recorded April 24, 2013 in Jordan Hall, Boston.

Fangirl, coffee addict, music junkie, rabid playlist assembler. Likes any and all music that sounds awesome, because genre-normativity is so last year.
