St Petersburg Philharmonic OrchestraConductor
Yuri TemirkanovAbout
Shostakovich’s Seventh Symphony was composed and dedicated to the city of Leningrad (now St Petersburg), and although officially a response to the German invasion of 1941, it has been accepted by listeners around the world as a universal response of resistance to totalitarianism. Led by their musical director and chief conductor Yuri Temirkanov, the orchestra brings this sense of union and defiance to life in an exhilarating live performace.
These new recordings have been made possible thanks to the recent refurbishment of their home concert venue, the Grand Philharmonic Hall, allowing many of us to hear for the first time the excitement of the Philharmonic’s performances in their resident city of St Petersburg.
