Shostakovich 50 with the NSOI
Dublin City, Co. Dublin
17 October 2025
Irish premiere of Anna Clyne's powerful 'Restless Oceans' with conductor Anna Rakitina's NSOI debut. Features Tchaikovsky's passionate Violin Concerto and Shostakovich's gripping Fifth Symphony.

One of the greatest Romantic concertos, one of the 20th century's most gripping declarations, and a 'defiant piece that embraces the power of women'.

The Irish premiere of Anna Clyne's 'instantly gripping, totally exhilarating' (Limelight) Restless Oceans calls on the orchestra 'to use their voices in song... and their feet to stomp and bring them to stand united at the end'.

Tchaikovsky's emotional rollercoaster Violin Concerto is a passion-filled duet between singing violin and orchestra. Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony runs the gamut from despair to elation, fueled by memorable tunes and fevered energy.

Conductor Anna Rakitina makes her NSOI debut with violinist Mairéad Hickey.

Tickets €15, €25, €29, €34.50, €39
