Shostakovich and the cello.

 

 The Millennium Centre is an extraordinary building.

 Outside and in.  We will settle within easy reach of Cardiff, of that there is no doubt.

This day we were here to hear Shostakovich's second cello concerto.  Fav' instrument, fav' composer.  The performance was broadcast live on Radio 3, hence the venue, a huge sound studio.  Schumann and  Liszt were also played but Shostakovich does it for me.
