In tonight's all-Russian programme, Valery Gergiev continues the Shostakovich centenary theme with excerpts from the composer's politically correct anti-Capitalist ballet, The Golden Age, and ends with Tchaikovsky's heartfelt final symphony, a work premiered just ten days before the composer's death.
