Bychkov Conducts Russian Masters

An evening of Russian masters. Semyon Bychkov conducts Tchaikovsky’s <em>Winter Dreams,</em> an early symphony that the composer favored over his later works. Karen Gomyo — “a first-rate artist of real musical command, vitality, brilliance, and intensity” <em>(Chicago Tribune)</em> — joins him for Shostakovich’s contemplative and fiery Violin Concerto No. 1.
