This musical treat has been carefully crafted to mark fifty years since the death of composer, Shostakovich with performances of some of his finest chamber music from cellist Abi Hyde-Smith and pianist Jocelyn Freeman.
Following the success of their debut album together, Hyde-Smith and Freeman collaborate together again with an exciting programme to include Shostakovich’s Cello Sonata and a new commission from composer Peter Walton, who took Shostakovich’s themes as his inspiration.
