With Bridges, Frascati Symphonic builds a musical bridge between Ukraine, Belgium and Russia. Cellist Michael Song is the soloist in Sergei Prokofiev’s monumental Sinfonia Concertante, written for the famous cellist Mstislav Rostropovitch. .

A unique mix of symphony and concert, in which he combines symphonic grandeur with solo bravado. We start with the subdued Hymn 2001 by Ukrainian Valentin Silvestrov and the world premiere of Obstinatio 4, a tribute to Dmitri Shostakovich.
