The Chicago Symphony Orchestra will perform at Wheaton College on Friday, November 18, 7:30 p.m.
A journey from brooding despair to rousing triumph, Shostakovich’s Fifth Symphony rescued him from the grips of official Soviet disfavor. But to many listeners, it’s a more subversive critique of life under Stalin. This program, led by Manfred Honeck, also showcases the U.S. premiere of Lera Auerbach’s Diary of a Madman, composed for Gautier Capuçon.
Ticket holders are invited to a free preconcert conversation featuring Laura Sauer-Shah in Amerding Concert Hall 75 minutes before the performance. The conversation will last approximately 30 minutes. No additional tickets required.
The concert will take place in Edman Memorial Chapel, located at 401 E. Franklin, Wheaton.
Tickets are available at cso.org/wheaton or by calling 312.294.3000.
