The year 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of the death of Dmitri Shostakovich, the immense Russian composer, born in Saint Petersburg in 1906 and died in Moscow in 1975. An emblematic figure of 20th-century music , Shostakovich is honored in a program for strings and piano, alongside other composers who counted in his life, such as Britten (the friend to whom he dedicated his 14th Symphony ) , Prokofiev (who supported him against the communist regime) and Weinberg (freed thanks to Shostakovich's intervention). The concert is presented by Axelle Thiry, presenter and producer on Musiq'3.
