The finale of Beethoven’s Ninth, with the famous Ode to Joy, marked the moment when voice (both soloist and choir) first entered the world of instrumental symphony. It was a great and far-reaching event, in which Wagner saw a vision of the art of the future. As a prelude to this major landmark piece of music history, Philippe Aïche will be performing the concerto Shostakovitch dedicated to David Oistrakh for his sixtieth birthday.
