Teodor Currentzis returns to Greece at the head of MusicAeterna, the orchestral ensemble he founded in 2004, to perform two emblematic 20th-century works. A music director with a high-flying international career and a reputation for fiery interpretations of symphonic and operatic works, Currentzis will conduct Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony along with Rachmaninoff’s much-loved Second Piano Concerto. At the keyboard,
the celebrated Russian pianist, Alexander Melnikov, whose sensitive but deeply personal renditions have garnered numerous awards.
