Known for infusing the spirit of revolutionary socialism into his innovative compositions, his Symphony No. 10 -- which he wrote shortly after Stalin's demise -- is a triumphant work of liberatory spirit. On this music video, Pavel Kogan and the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra take on the dynamic work, and their performance proves that no other performers are better suited for it. In addition, they play a series of encores including Tchaikovsky's "Waltz from Eugene Onegin," Richard Wagner's prelude to the third act of LOHENGRIN, and Shostakovich's "Parody from ballet music."
