Acclaimed virtuoso Joshua Bell solos in Beethoven’s towering, dramatic Violin Concerto. Jaap van Zweden leads Shostakovich’s eloquent Fifth, his most popular symphony. Though its emotional core harbors a profound sadness, it is a work of epic grandeur, with huge climaxes, triumphant marches, and heroic brass — to many it reveals the composer’s in-your-face defiance of Stalin’s tyranny.
