Pianist Alexander Kostritsa (CIM DMA '14) and trumpet player James Tinsley (Boston Pops and Boston Symphony) join the orchestra as soloists for powerful and at times sarcastic music in Shostakovich's first piano concerto. Mendelssohn's overture and Beethoven's first symphony propel the listener through sweeping melodies and relentless energy.
