Lorenzo Gatto on stage with young talent

Russian fireworks! After Stalin's death, Shostakovich finally dared to let loose his pent-up feelings. His Tenth Symphony is simply bursting with emotion and humanity. In his First Violin Concerto, Prokofiev is not averse to adding a surprising twist. Sometimes, the violin sings lyrically, then it is thrashed, and then it a floats away with fairy‑tale naïveté. In Wim Henderickx’s exciting overture Pulses of the Earth, the promising young lions of the Youth Orchestra Flanders find an exciting contemporary counterbalance.
