Best of Russia: Rachmaninov, Shostakovich and Matsuev

About the Event

Together with the Netherlands Radio Philharmonic Orchestra, pianist Denis Matsuev presents an all‐Russian program at the Concertgebouw.

The charismatic virtuoso performs Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No. 2. A jazzy, light, and festive piece that is followed by Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 1. An emotional roller‐coaster, this piece is very Russian in character — mysterious and dramatic.
