Shostakovich and Dvorak on Aug 17th at Hollywood Bowl

Melodic and wistful, earthy and passionate—Dvořák’s Cello Concerto is one of the most popular pieces of its kind ever written and a rite of passage for any concert cellist. Sterling Elliott has been praised for his stellar stage presence and joyful musicianship. The “radiant young cellist” (The Washington Post) joins the LA Phil for Dvořák’s gem. Capping off the evening, Anna Rakitina leads Shostakovich’s thunderous and powerful Fifth Symphony.
