RLPO/ Vasily Petrenko ****
Philharmonic Hall, Liverpool, 26th October 2018

Their Shostakovich, in particular, has won critical plaudits, but for this Friday matinee at Philharmonic Hall, the focus was on three of Dmitri Dmitriyevich’s comrades, including a remarkable concerto performance by French-Serbian violinist Nemanja Radulović that challenged the usual preconceptions.
