Shostakovich plays Shostakovich – 2
In this second programme about Dmitri Shostakovich, as performer of his own compositions, we will play two works. First his 10th symphony, his own four-hands piano composition. The recording dates from February 1954, two months after the world premiere of the symphony. Shostakovich plays together with Mieczyslaw Weinber, another composer.
