Symphony No. 5 in B-flat major, Op. 100

Expect soul-searching lyricism as violinist Ray Chen brings out the unusual beauty of Bruch’s First Violin Concerto. Prokofiev’s Fifth Symphony, meant to inspire Russians in time of war and to ‘sing the praises of the free and happy man’, closes this concert.
