Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra - "Power and Brilliance"

Power and brilliance indeed when soloist, Ioana Cristina Goicea, joins the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra for the Violin Concerto No 1 by Shostakovich, one of his most gripping and affecting works. And the orchestra has its own ‘solo’ moment, with Bartok’s Concerto for Orchestra.
