Valery Gergiev conducts Russian masterpieces, including Rachmaninoff’s blockbuster Third Piano Concerto, a work of massive power and drive, featuring Denis Matsuev. In Petrushka Stravinsky created an exciting new world of sound — shifting rhythms and keys, and echoes of a barrel organ — to tell the story of a puppets’ love-triangle set at a Shrovetide fair.
