Two works on this program, both critically panned at their premieres, have since become audience favorites. Shostakovich’s Sixth starts with an achingly emotional slow movement before plunging toward a fast and fiery finish. In Tchaikovsky’s lively Violin Concerto, the virtuosic demands made on the soloist never fail to leave audiences awestruck. The David Hockney-inspired opening work is performed in memory of composer, pianist, and former Colburn faculty member Sarah Gibson.
