Maxim Vengerov, one of the world’s greatest violinists, joins Malta Philharmonic Orchestra in not one, but two concertos – composed a century apart. Radiant one minute, savage the next, Sergei Prokofiev’s First Violin Concerto captures the urgency of its times, written during the First World War as Russia descended into Revolution. The orchestra, with its Principal Conductor Sergey Smabtyan at the helm, also performs Alexey Shor’s romantic Seascapes for Violin and Symphony Orchestra.
