We’re Back! Club Shostakovich returns with the spectacular soprano Jennifer Krikawa singing Russian A.R.T.* songs at the Royal Room. Rounding out the Russian festivities are Prokofiev's bold Second String Quartet and Shostakovich's dark and brooding Thirteenth Quartet, dedicated to Dmitri's friend, the Beethoven Quartet violist Vadim Borisovsky.
With violinists Blayne Barnes, Artur Girsky and Natasha Bazhanov, violists Heather Bentley and Julie Whitton, and cellist Rowena Hammill.
*Arensky, Rachmaninov, Tchaikovsky.
