Music shaped by a place, a pride, and a personal history: Jean Sibelius' 'The Oceanides' evokes the vast northern seas of Finland, while Dmitri Shostakovich's Violin Concerto No. 2, written under Soviet surveillance, is filled with tension and discreet resistance. As for Leoš Janáček's 'Sinfonietta', it overflows with brass accents of patriotism and daring optimism, celebrating Czech spirit. With Leonidas Kavakos as soloist, this music speaks of belonging and illustrates how our origins influence our narrative.
