Leonidas Kavakos plays Brahms’ “Violin Concerto” on tonight’s “Evening Concert”
Also on the program, Shostakovich's "5th Symphony".
Mahler’s “Ninth Symphony” on tonight’s “Evening Concert”
Regular listeners to the "Evening Concert" series may note that this work was on a Chicago Symphony Orchestra program 8 days ago. When the orchestras put together their radio series they don't consult each other. So, on occasion there's an unintended synchronicity/repetition of compositions, like the Mahler "9th". I hope you enjoy this recording of the work (Vincent Trauth, curator of the "Evening Concert' Series)
