Dmitri Shostakovich’s Sixth Symphony from 1939 poses an exciting riddle, not least because the beginning and end are missing in this curious work. Instead, it begins with a long slow movement that revolves around its own axis like a giant, lonely planet in space. Followed by two very fast movements. This is how the composer himself imagined »spring, joy, youth«. It will most definitely be a splendid musical experience!
