Sinfonia nº 11 em sol menor, op. 103

Composed in summer 1971 and premiered the following January, the Fifteenth is distinctive in its very surprising quotation from Rossini's William Tell Overture, as well as other musical allusions. The composer's mysterious, introspective late style is evident in the second movement, with its long cello solo.

Behind the Music: Shostakovich's Symphony No. 15

The Boston Symphony Orchestra (BSO) recently completed a monumental recording cycle of Shostakovich’s complete symphonies, earning endless critical praise along the way (“scandalously successful,” wrote London’s The Times; “the most electrifying ... in half a century,” said Gramophone). This evening’s program features Symphony No. 11—a musical depiction of 1905’s Russian Revolution—which earned Nelsons and the BSO one of the multiple Grammy Awards (Best Orchestral Performance) they received throughout the project. Adding further to the excitement is Yo-Yo Ma as soloist in Shostakovich’s First Cello Concerto, a famously demanding piece that was an early landmark in Ma’s own recording career.
