Dr Baldwin has studied the code-breaking
work at Bletchley Park and has prepared an
entertaining instructive show on this subject.
Thursday 19 April 2018
EUROPEAN UNION CHAMBER
ORCHESTRA
The 16-17 Series concludes with
Shostakovich’s imposing Fifth Symphony.
Filled with melodies and stirring rhythms,
it bursts with power and rebellious beauty.
Writing under Stalin’s Soviet regime,
Shostakovich created a blend of satire and
submission that intrigues audiences to this day.
Dr Mark Baldwin presents one of the Second
World War’s most fascinating stories - that
of the Allied codebreakers, who deciphered
German secret messages and used the
intelligence gained to hasten Allied victory.

BBC NATIONAL ORCHESTRA OF WALES
Glinka’s overture to his operatic masterpiece,
Ruslan and Ludmila, is full of exuberance
and lyricism, making it the perfect opener
to this final concert of the Cheltenham
Concert Series. Beethoven’s Violin Concerto,
meanwhile, is a masterpiece of the genre,
bridging the gap between Classical and
Romantic concerto styles with elegance and
wit, and culminating in a zesty finale.
