Richard Strauss Till Eulenspiegel
Richard Strauss Six Brentano Songs
Shostakovich Symphony No.10

Vasily Petrenko conductor
Adela Zaharia soprano

The Soviet authorities called it an ‘optimistic tragedy’. But Shostakovich simply called it his Tenth Symphony, and there’s no mistaking the drama at the core of this gripping musical Cold War thriller. And Vasily Petrenko kicks off with Till Eulenspiegel, possibly the funniest of pranksters in all music. But Strauss was a big softie really, and his six Brentano Songs are pure romance: a perfect Liverpool debut for the glorious voice of Adela Zaharia.
