Violinist Benjamin Baker performs Brahms’ epic violin concerto in a concert featuring two monumental pieces that serve as the pinnacles of their genres.

Intermission is followed by a dramatic performance of one of the great symphonies of the 20th century - Shostakovich’s Fifth. This assertive and satirical yet aching masterpiece is one for the ages.

*Benjamin Baker, violin
Run Time: 83 minutes of music plus 20 minute intermission
