The Concerto for Piano, Trumpet, and String Orchestra<\/em><\/a> in C minor, Op. 35, was completed by Dmitri Shostakovich<\/a> in 1933. The concerto was an experimentation with a neo-baroque combination of instruments. Despite the title, the work might more accurately be classified as a double concerto rather than a piano concerto in which the trumpet and piano command equal prominence. The concerto was premiered on 15 October 1933 in the season opening concerts of the Leningrad Philharmonic Orchestra with Shostakovich at the piano, Fritz Stiedry conducting, and Alexander Schmidt playing the trumpet solos. – Yuja Wang<\/a><\/p>\n
